Twin Souls
A poem
2 min readMar 3, 2023
Ours was never
a whirlwind romance
it was something
that moved quietly
in the silence of souls
and it made me feel
like I could be whole
I loved you from afar
though you were close
but just across
a crowded room
and we talked
late at night over drinks
when everyone had gone
You made me realize
that the past is gone
and you a part of that past
are also gone now
leaving me here alone
I remembered you
dreamed of you
before I met you
even your tattoo
But I didn’t know
how much you
loved someone else
before I met you
and that you would never
want to hold me close
it took time to
figure out
