I’ve always felt complete,
but you’re like my other heartbeat –
so in sync, so benign,
great minds really are alike.
A listener I never had,
a soul mate even,
not a fad.
That’s so refreshing to see,
something I aspire to be.
In the world’s tug-of-war,
you’re my loving ally and so much more.
I always thought it was me against the world,
but now I know it’s us both.
How did you stay so sweet, so pure,
in a world full of vapid, putrid bores?
I gasp in disbelief–
you see me for who I am,
behind my skintight sheath.
How did you peer through the glass
so many fail to pass?
I light up at your very sight–
my grumpy sunshine,
my sweet delight.

I don't believe in soulmates but some people make me reconsider. Who would have thought it would be an English man in his 80s. Uncanny.
