Souls
I
I've never known another soul
Like you,
Because I've never known another soul
Like me.
II
You are the love of my life —
Truly,
The one great love of my life.
How do I know this?
I don't.
My soul does.
III
I love your tongue
In my mouth and in my ear.
It speaks voluptuous endearments
Only my soul can taste
And, in tasting, translate,
For my innermost spirit to hear.
IV
Awakening beside each other,
Both of us fully clothed
In robes of total nakedness,
Is morning's gift
We give our loving souls.
V
Soul mate is the name I give you,
At the very beginning of your birth to me.
Always, when I dream of you,
I know you'll come,
And into your coming,
I will come,
Tenderly wombed in wonderment.
Soul to soul,
We'll ever be born anew.
