Soul Tie
You wanted to link but I had reservations,
I was done giving in to random temptations.
But this time was unique, I knew in my heart,
That this would be different, so why not just start.
I agreed to meet you. And welcomed you in,
And the things that followed were unimagined.
What happened between us was no routine encounter
A connection so strong; I’d never felt so much power.
Spiritual, emotional, intensity rising,
On the verge of erupting; It was immobilizing.
Motionless we knew we had no control,
For some unknown force showed me your soul,
More than butterflies, it was lightening, flashing within,
I wanted your closeness, and the touch of your skin.
Your presence alone made me weak, stole my breath,
And in minutes I knew my soulmate was Beth.
The closer we got on the couch was a trial,
And I think we were both in a little denial,
Could this be real? Am I going crazy?
Is the tree laced? ‘Cuz I’m feeling quite hazy.
Never in life had I felt such a feeling,
Instant addiction, it was rather revealing.
Quivering and breathless we grew closer and closer,
Music was playing and God was the composer,
He brought us together, it has to be true,
Instant love like that is divine through and through.
We talked and we vibed, all while in awe,
Of the magic, the thrill, mesmerized by it all.
The minutes passed and the hours did too,
When the night ended, I knew it was you.
I had to have you no matter the cost,
Because without you I already knew I’d be lost.
How in one night did I know you’re the one,
That I’ve waited for and we’d just begun?
It was late, I was confused, how can this feel so right?
And for the first time Bae said, “I’ll just stay the night.”
About this poem
I wrote this poem after meeting my girlfriend for the first time in person. The night was indescribable really, but I tried to capture the moment here.
