Soul Mate
I fall into the deep abyss
Darkness surrounds as I shriek out into the black night.
No stars. No planets. No galaxies.
Fear takes over.
I scream again, no one responds.
Suddenly a light appears.
I run towards it and find my salvation.
A pair of gentle, loving emerald eyes meets my terrified, harsh crimson ones.
I grasp onto your small pale hand with my strong tan one.
You smile down on me.
My heart goes aflutter as I now know I'm not alone.
You've always been there, always protected me.
I'm grateful to call you my meister.
My best friend.
My soul mate.
Soul
I look down at your petrified expression and try to caress your tender face.
You pull away.
You are trapped somewhere I can't reach.
Tears come down like rain, falling onto your hospital gown.
I grip your hand tighter as I feel my hope being lost.
Without you, I would be lost.
Alone.
Unloved.
Uncaring.
You are my everything, without you I would have no purpose.
I gasp for breath as I realize my breathing has ceased.
My heart soars when I see those crimson eyes meet my jade eyes.
We gaze at each other as a smile comes across your face.
I can't help but smile back at you,
My weapon,
My companion,
My Soul.
