Souls That Touch

My soul and yours They touch They breathe You nestle deep inside me And I feel comfort A love that radiates like the sun That has trancended over time I pull you close My head on your shoulder And my heart whispers to you Soft, tender words You hear them I feel it in your touch The warmth that radiates off your skin The way your soul touches mine We dance I see it in my mind The way you would take my hand And twirl me around The candles dancing on their own And then we break away And I whisper in the night While we depart I love you Cassius Though your name has changed over time And you respond I love you too But my name is unknown You wont whisper it You say I must find it on my own And I watch you walk away The sound of crunching gravel in my ears A bitter sweet goodbye But I wont forget you I wont forget our love Our souls untangle I am left with the ghost of you But I am not empty The way that you are I pray that you will fill your void Not with another, but with your own And the moon, for a moment Seems to shine brighter

A romantic mystery that's genuine with every look and touch. I love the mystical feel in the name exchange. The gravel is so lucid in sound and meaning. Strange as it is, One must choose to be empty, and I choose to be full of love Jay, your soul poetry says the same. " Not with another, but with your own..." J.A.B.
