My Soul Mate... Poem by chantelle ribeiro

I heard your heart
pleading for understanding
Sharing it's darkness
Intertwining with mine
Something changed today
A special moment
A fragment of a secret
deeply hidden away
you reached out with your soul
leaving me breathless
The intimacy of a minute
burned into my brain
And I stand in awe of your rawness
your exquisite pain mirrored
in my eyes
I think you know
Because you feel it in your soul
A motion
A shift in time and space
Today we merged like one
on another plain
you and I forever joined
by our sorrow and pain
And I cried
Tears of joy rolling down my face
for in this universe
On this lonely planet
I found my soul mate
