For You, My Soul-Mate

by Sarah Ann   Jul 6, 2005


Boy you got me hypnotized and I am not sure what to do
Told me not to get too close, but now I’ve fallen for you
I knew that this would happen, and now it got too deep
To the extent you are on my mind, and boy I cannot sleep

I am not sure where it is all going, or if this is even right
And although I try to hide it, I still think of you all night
And nothing now can help me, because I am already there
I just stay up every night wishing one day you would care

It’s like you could tear me apart and put me back together
But no matter what you would do, I would love you forever
For you can take certain risks for those so close to the heart
And although you may be scared you still risk falling apart

Boy I would do anything, anything to show you I am true
I am so sorry that these words are still not enough for you
What do you want me to tell you, what exactly should I say
I dream about you every night, you are on my mind all day

It’s like nothing in the world matters when I see your face
And almost everything about you makes me feel so in place
These words I say are true; it is from the bottom of my soul
For no matter what I try to do, I am entirely in your control

You might think all this is lust, but I feel it deep down inside
I know that you don’t believe me, for so many times I tried
But words are not enough to express how I really truly feel
That is why we have our actions to prove that love is real

It is the reason I act shy, and how around you I can’t speak
And whenever you would talk to me, I give up feeling weak
Because the fact I can’t have you keeps burning in my mind
I loved you for almost forever, how could you be so blind?

It was the first day I saw you, I thought I fell down so hard
For my chances with you were barely the flip of a single card
But I knew that we could work out almost anything if we try
And yet you still refused me, and left me for four years to cry

You told me I could have anyone, I was pretty in every way
And in my heart I knew it, but you still took my breath away
Four years and my heart is still burning for...my soul mate
At times I want to give up, but I know you’re worth the wait

-This poem means a lot to me. I really put my heart into it...It had somewhat an angry atmosphere... but what can I say. Please comment and I will return the favor. Poet's Honor. xxx

    great poem! I loved the angry/desperate atmosphere. Definitely a great read. I've felt this way so many times....hopefully this guy sees the beauty in you or maybe you'll just have to move on. Good luck, either way. 4/5.
