Ode to my Soulmate

Please hear…
Can you let my words fall gently on your ears
Can you hear them softly cry?
I will listen for your call and I promise to reply

Please touch…
Can you let my caresses be honest and true
Can you feel them touch your heart?
I will feel you near me and hold your hand however far apart

Please taste…
Can you taste my tears the rivers I have cried
Can you stop them from stealing my joy?
I will feed your belly with serenity so you may quietly enjoy

Please smell…
Can you smell my fragrance and instantly ignite
Can you keep my flame aburning?
I will embrace your incense and intensify your yearning

Please see…
Can you see me through accepting eyes
Can you see inside my soul?
I will see you as perfect my love, never need to cajole

Please…
Can you ask nothing of me and let me be
Can it possibly be enough
For our spirits to meet in unison to the same end

Be more less concerned with your outward appearance and more concerned about your character, for that is what defines you. www,thoughtfortheweekend.com
