    Oh My Soul

    One day as I sat lonely

    In a life which filled me only,

    With the gloom of day that only turned to night;

     

    I came upon your vision,

    Which helped in my decision

    To let you give my life a little light.

     

    Your eyes were bright as sunshine

    And your smile…like mine, divine;

    I could- but see the joy your spirit would bring;

     

    You shared your heart with one kiss,

    And you touched my life with kindness;

    I knew right then I’d give you…anything.

     

    Oh…my Soul! I dream of life now only with your smile.

    Oh…my Soul! You’ve only been with me for a short while.

     

    But I have known you always,

    In those sad and lonely past days;

    When I needed joy to lift my spirits up;

     

    From…the life which came before you,

    And the light which we all knew,

    Would someday fill up any…joyful cup.

     

    You’ve been with me some twenty-four years,

    We’ve laughed together and shared our tears,

    But never have we ever… been apart;

     

    We’ve walked on roads, which led nowhere,

    And shared our dreams…or sometimes fear,

    Through words or just the inaudible sounds of our heart.

     

    Oh…my Soul! In time I’ll leave this world but not your heart

    Oh…my Soul! These words assure you I will never part,

    For I love you more than life now

    And my life will always show how

    you came to be the one and only…Oh my Soul.

    SOUNDS LIKE YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT ME CAUSE I WAS 24 WHEN YOU WROTE THIS....RIGHT? I AM A PART OF YOU; YOUR SOUL. AND I ALSO HAVE A CHILD NAMED SOUL IN WHICH YOU COULD BE SPEAKING OF HER AS WELL BECAUSE SHE HAS BEEN WITH ME FOR 24 YEARS(AT THE TIME POEM WAS WRITTEN) CAUSE SHE HAS ALWAYS BEEN A PART OF ME AND YOU. EITHER WAY.....ITS BEAUTIFUL

    To have great poets there must be great audiences too.
