The weeping of souls and Heavenly joy abounds Succumb to the raptures of that moisture upon a cheek Transcendental souls speak their own language of tears We are just their harbouring hosts as each other they seek No longer tears of pain - but instead ‘Tears of Soulful Joy’ Into my open mouth trickle as they stream down my face Happiness surpassing all bounds - exquisite is its taste Priceless in their worth - no remorse will ever take its place Awakened memories of when our souls did first connect A Metaphysical Truth - A Bonding - Life’s Mystery The feeling of De’ja’vu - halted in its stride - Time stood still A beacon of blinding light that streaked from you to me I would sense you anywhere – for you are my Soul Mate Connected at Soul level to this physical state I believe once you have truly connected so deeply Love is sealed forever - now and through all eternity The surging power emanating between us so searing and intense Beyond analysing - beyond laws of gravity - beyond making sense ~'Soul Mates interwoven through space and time Singing their divine union in verse sublime'~ Above couplet contributed with thanks - by ~Demetrios Trifiatis~
An extract poem from ‘Memories series’ - 'Unchained - Episode 8'

It is lovely when we become inspired by a fellow poet Maria. Your poem eloquently expresses that undeniable feeling one gets when they meet their soul mate. I knew instantly when I met my husband on a flight. Your poem is very enchanting and beautiful Maria. A Fave! Have a Happy Holiday! : ) xxoo

Thank you Si, we have many Soul Mates, some come and go, some stay, some even in childish form. Not every Soul Mate is "romantically linked" thank you for visiting and your lovely comments always.....Maria

Without a doubt, you said it..."beyond making sense,"... Your poem apart from being well written has a deep spiritual essence permeating throughout its lines...All the best Maria
