Leave the scent of your soul behind
I’ll follow it to get to you.
But don’t go too far
what if in search of you
I lose myself too.
Just stay close to me
hold my hand and help me rise
but don’t look at me like that
I’ll lose myself in your eyes
I don’t need a map
but a promise that you’ll always stay
how can I ever lose my road back home
when you’ve become my way?
I don’t need the sky
or the twinkling stars
because every path and journey I take
lead me back to where you are
You have a smile worth a thousand suns
and a glint of hazel beauty in your eyes
you have arms as wide as the horizon
and a soul as pure as the sky.
I wrote this for someone special. Someone who’s voice makes me smile. Someone who has beauty dripping from their soul. Someone who said I remind them of a joke….
Happy birthday same-same….
Beautiful poem.

According to what I got, this is a mixture of sadness and happy love. Loved reading each and every para. But the last para was what really got me.
“Someone who said I remind them of a joke….” That seemed powerful.
Amazing stuff 🌺
