The comfort of a soul mate
I'm finally complete
Stress lingers
But not when you’re here.
You calm my anxiety
And take away my fear.
You help me see what’s real
And wipe away my tears.
All that pain forgotten
As long as you’re here.
When thoughts grow dark
you wash them away.
You make me feel like
I can conquer another day.
The comfort that you radiate
Is something new to me.
I feel like I am living life
I feel like I am free.
You make my heart so happy
That living just makes sense.
I know it’s kind of sappy
I find comfort in this.
My lover
My best friend
There can never be an other
That makes me feel like this.
About the Creator
Lauren Dee
I have had very disturbing dreams my whole life. I write fictional short stories, rants and poems all based off of my experiences in life. They can be dark, but it's the only way I can get them out of my mind.

Spectating
I can't imagine dying like this, in a place like this; on a cold, dirty pavement with rush hour traffic screaming by and a crowd looking on while paramedics struggle to find space to move. Who could? Deep down we all think there should be a reason, a moment of clarity... or a family presence, at least. For this man, this boy, the rail thin woman lighting a cigarette in a faux fur jacket will have to do - she's been here since the start, her eyes tracking the movement of my shoulders as we fight to keep him on the right side of the line.
