Soulmate...

I want you to be the face I awaken to And the voice that puts me to sleep I want your trust, honesty, and secrets to keep You know I hate to see you go But I love to watch you leave But, it is what it is when it needs to be I respect the fact that you'd never lie to me Even if it makes me weak and depressed Your true feelings you'll express With no discretion But that doesn't stop me from missing the affection Living with regrets, and wanting that connection I want to sooth your mind and your flesh Endure your pain and you stress Just to obsess the correct end of our reflection When i stare into your eyes, and take you into my arms. And you shine like the charm on a bracelet For when we run out of patience and decide to have babies And i'll be able to stare and compare her beauty to your face But until that day you'll be the only star in my skies And on the day my disguise is removed and my identity revealed You will have truly experienced me You compliment, and complete me Our lives are opposite and intriguing Yet the same and relieving that if you let me I can understand why your heart beats the way it does And know the reason why you decided to show me love When I was no more than I am now And that you live by the last 3 digits of my life And you ignite as i burst and combust into flames Torching the pain and leaving those lives behind us And every year father time will remind us that we are not easily replaced I want you to be the voice I hear when i awaken And the face I see before slumber I remember the day I got your number Even though it was on some friend shit I couldn't pretend shit... I wanted more And I was relieved to know you felt the same So I continued to let you pick my brain As long as I could remain and retain the decision to ever walk away I want you to speak the thoughts that enlighten my mornings I want you to be the body that puts me to sleep. I need you to know that you were made just for me And I hope you can relate I'd always regret being the ex to my soulmate. -Poetrii
