Save Each Other

Soulmates Intertwining

By Brian McClanahanPublished 3 years ago • 2 min read
♾️♾️♾️

I have searched high and low,

Through the shattered pieces of this heart I own,

I have cried out from the darkened catacombs,

Lost inside an eternal void many will never know,

I have wandered the crumbled roads,

That writhe this complex soul,

I have stumbled upon the stones

And fallen deeper into the eternal hole,

Darker and darker the deeper it goes

Until no ounce of light existed to shine the way to home,

Further and further I withered to bones,

Feeling more and more alone,

Out of the darkness you showed,

Guiding me to a place I had never known

Like a dream in the cluttered nightmare,

A gleam of light from smile she bares,

As if the flame of eternal love she held

Pierced through the dense smog that kept me in fear

With a heart as buried and bruised as my own,

She swept me up and held me close,

A comfort I had never felt before

As she used that torch to burn through these barricaded doors,

I wonder if she came just for me

To save me from this pit of everlasting agony,

A man so deep in the darkness of his demolished self,

That never believed anyone could help,

Her smile by itself lighting his way,

As an eternal Bond forms with such on breakable chains,

His chilled bones begin to feel warmth

No longer alone in his falling corridors

Finally he feels seen, for this he owes everything

For she has showed this man a vision

In which the likes he has never seen

Watering a dying heart with her laughter

Fertilizing his branches to grow higher

So they may reach the outer limits

Of this existence they were both thrust into as children,

There is no comparison to her compassion

As there is no likeness to night and day

Or to the calm blue skies and the darkened stormy night

In her hands she holds him next to this flame

Warming him until he once again breaths

And as he opens his eyes each time

Slowly regaining life

He sees the beauty of the her, the one that gave him back his mind

In that moment he realized

I’m that instance he witnessed a new life

And for this new journey he cannot wait

Along side the woman she has became,

Knowing he will never question her faith

He will never abandon her as so many have done the same

He will forever hold her close to his heart

Keeping her warm and also safe

Because something that has given him the same,

could only be the love of a true soul mate.
