I'm alive,

so alive

that's how I feel

when you can draw me near and I'll stay there

within where I burn

brightest, warm and tenderly

as there,

I am safest.


There is an energy

from this bond,

not Fire and Ice,

but Flame and Home

emitting the essence

of which I use to

defend at every cost,

every corner,

I am there,

call.


Soulmate....

That's an interesting term,

I let it define what you have of me

as we're together

drifting slowly feigning

deep sleep in which

I could meld to what

I hold in my heart and

mind most,

ah soon enough

to the beating of my favorite heart.


I'm alive after

knowing you're fine,

it makes me better,

makes me want to step up

and say what we want,

If you want to hear,

it's a simple sentence

but I'm afraid of being judged,

judged by people I know,

but atleast

you can cure my fears,

my disappointments,

my discontents,

my feeling of emptiness,

within what you are and

give to me,

I am alive,

don't leave and

please keep me alive,

dear,

the one I call soulmate.


Fire has no place that

is given to call its own,

yes there is within it

a soul, its own being,

but within its true

soul is it happy,

yeah, I truly believe

I've seen you call to me

in dreams,

you loved me and now

I know you do.


it's wonderfully pleasant

when you're near,

I burn bright into the

dusk,

but this is for you,

not me,

as long as you're

near I have everything

I'd ever want.

You twist my flame

and make us brighter,

dearly beloved.


I'm safe

safe from going out,

fire is never stable you know

so bare with me,

I won't struggle,

So tell me everything you

need me to be

as I know the place I

am to stand in,

what of this place?

it lies in your heart where I find peace.


I have a question,

I'm serious about it,

but I'm afraid

so when you need to hear

it,

reassure me,

please,

it's been in my mind a while

just because we fit so perfectly.

If anything happens to 

you I'll suffocate...

there's not much worth

living for

if no one is there

to keep me alive.

And yes I'll fight for 

you,

beautiful girl of mine,

everything is different

when it's done by me

for you.


I love you,

I don't just see you

as an object,

or a vessel,

something to have and then toss aside under a rug,

because I know who you are

and I see you as what calls

me theirs to never let go

and I stay close

because you're my safety

from being smothered

and put out.


I've never wanted anything,

all I need now is you

because people are wrong,

you are,

you are,

as it seems,

my soulmate,

no matter what happens,

I will die for you,

that's my highest honor,

cherish it as a promise

and thank you,

I'm sorry I'm so shy,

but I do love you deeply,

The one who calls me theirs, my dear beautiful beloved.
