Poem 13, is my lucky 13. Soul Mate, given over to me by Sue K. I know what it means to her, and what it means to me. Here is something that I’ve had kicking around over the years, that expresses the concept simply. No frills, just all matter-of-factly, like. Dig it!
“Soul Mate”
Life is but a dream,
From which I dare not wake.
Traveling down the stream,
Each moment mine to take.
I sought your love most true,
Each bend ahead to pass.
Never knew how love with you,
Could be the kind to last.
In spite of me you give,
And take less than your owed.
And take less than your owed.
Your selfless acts do live,
In promised fields well sowed.
The sun appears in sky,
Darkness soon recedes.
Darkness soon recedes.
This man is humbled by,
Your daily loving deeds.
If life is but a dream,
I bet my life to stake.
That life without you means,
That life without you means,
A dream not worth its sake.
