My other half

I reach out to thee, my love
to embrace the emotion that I cannot speak
To wrap my arms around you and inhale your scent
and to feel the warmth of your life

I hear your voice, calling out in the distance
It touches my soul and heart
Tender pain of deepest love aches within me
at the sound of your voice

Come to me in the sweet darkness
entwined as one, the dance we shall begin
We lose ourselves, time has no meaning
there is no existence beyond us

How can I be complete without my other half
to pump blood throughout with part of me missing
To feel without touch, to sing with no voice
for you are my life, my breath, my heart beat

My other half
