I am only half a soul

I am only half a soul
With you not with me
I am only half a heart
With you not loving me

You are the wings that take my heart to the highest height
You are the being that makes me feel alive
When I am with you,
I am not afraid to be me

I see you smiling and I smile
I see you crying and I cry.

When you laugh I feel alive
When you sing to me
Your melody is intoxicating
I fall asleep happy with you in my arms

I look at the stars, 
I look to you,
I count the amount of smiles you’ve put in the sky
There are billions,
Of all the consolations and you picked me

You are my smile,
You are the fires of passion,
The fires that warm me in my darkest hour
I could never live another moment
Never another moment,
Without your image in my mind.

I walk through the field of roses,
Each so sweet in scent and so beautiful
Compared to the rose it wilts in your presence,
You are divine and I love you.

Your problems are mine,
Your joy is my joy,
Your tears are collected
In the tissues I dry your eyes with.

My passion given to you,
In my poetry
In my spoken word
In the embrace of our kindred souls
In the touching of our lips
In the holding of you hand
In holding you, telling you,
Reassuring you,
That I will be what you want me to be,
I am here for you,
I will not let you walk alone,
I will defend you from all foes
I will be your lover for all time

When my eyes first met yours,
Passion was born in my soul,
Love awakened,
Like a phoenix in my heart
Exploding me into poetry

Allowing me to Feel,
Allowing me to Breathe
Allowing me to Love
Now that I am truly alive
I have only these words for you
And those are nothing less than
I Love You
