Soul Mates: A Poem
It’s those little things
In a world of laughter and sarcasm,
We dismiss the idea of soul mates with enthusiasm.
But he surprises me with a serious tone,
Saying, “We aren’t soul mates, they’re just dumb, you’ve known.”
I call him an idiot, but he kisses my head,
Asking for today’s date, filling me with dread.
He wants to ensure we never forget,
The day the universe brought us back, no regret.
I rest my head against his chest,
Wary of his strong approach, I jest.
He assures me it won’t scare me away,
Promising to whisper “I told you so” one day.
We laugh and talk, time flies by,
But I still have questions, I can’t deny.
As I yawn, I fight the urge to sleep,
Talking to him is a treasure I want to keep.
He leaves for water, then surprises me more,
Turning off the lamp, he spoons me, I adore.
It’s not what I expected, his intentions unclear,
But his presence brings comfort, no fear.
Wrapped in his arms, I feel safe and warm,
As he whispers, “I’ve never wanted to change your form.”
His touch is gentle, his words sincere,
I melt into his embrace, no need to steer.
With his cheek against mine, time stands still,
In this moment, nothing else matters, it’s a thrill.
In his arms, I find solace and peace,
A love that makes my worries release.
Hope you liked the poem.
