Ah. Such white marble steps
Carved in the passages of my mind
And beg in their sweetness to
Be released from the words that ramble across
The pages of the universe.
These steps will lead to my heart,
A dark and hidden room
Barred and locked triple-tight.
A room that never will see your light.
For you are hidden in a veil
A veil of stars, a caul of moons
That steal your brilliance for their own
And reflect it across the dimensions.
Reflected across all the worlds
Of time and space
To glint in my eyes
And brighten my face with a smile.
I know not where you are,
Nor the curve of your face.
You could have passed me i
My soulmate
My fellow adventure seeker
My silent stability
The epitome of independence
You say little
Yet you convey so much
You have accepted me
With all my flaws
Never putting me down
For the things I lack
It is with you and only you
That I feel good enough
My body is heavy with the tears of my heart
My heart aches for the mate of my soul
My soul calls out for its other half
I seek
I call
I wander
I feel, but cannot reach
I dream, but cannot see
I am lost in the hope I will not release
My soul calls out
There is no answer to guide my way
Mate of my soul
Where could you be?
