Maybe I should be locked away
In a straight jacket,
With only these words to say
But as I've seen,
and felt,
and heard,
You feel the very same way.
Though I feel I might awake
And have this simply be
The sweetest drug ever to take,
the most ambroasial,
and lingering,
and liberating,
Dream to give my anguish a break.
I know that after your lips blew
Truth and life into my soul,
My dreams and desires are new.
I want to live,
and love,
and die,
With nobody else but you.
Author notes
I chose "soul meets body"~ just because the title alone reminds me of how he kinda brought my soul back to me.
But, "i'll follow you into the dark" is the one that always reminds me of how much I love him~

Oh my God, I never commented on this?! I'm so sorry! And now it's closed for judging and such--but dang, I'm sorry! I'll comment now!
I absoltulely adore the style you wrote it in! How the stanzas are broken up, and the pattern of the lines in the stanzas--I love it. : )
The word choice was wonderful, and I really REALLY love this poem.
Thank you for entering! I'm sorry I didn't comment sooner!!!
