The Soul in You

in the midst of travelling places
searching for a comforting voice
where only lonely souls could hear

...

I found you

...

your tender words and gentle ways
melted the frozen within me
in profound simplicity

if only I could comprehend
how so the haunting thoughts
where emotions kept wilfully chilled
could flee

...

you touched me

...

with feelings unmasked
that flowed through
the spine of me
and held me strong

I am reborn
'cause of you
and you have me realised

the soul in you
is the only sole
I want from you

...

I love you so

...


friendship in its truest form is about finding the simple mutuality of comfort...in each other

This is an absolutely lovely first post, mycafe,  but in the third line from the bottom, I think you meant soul instead of sole...

Thanks for sharing it with us and welcome to Passions
