in the deep of nite
do I seek my mate
someone who will be mine
mind, body, heart and soul
and in return,
shall I be his
I wish to be
someone’s solace from all fears
a silent comfort
when speech is irrelevant
to enfold my wings around him
just existing with him
not analyzing or arguing
just being one with him
to be his strength
when his own wanes
to be all I could for him
loving his as he is
as they could be
as he will be
to desire and be desired
to keep his secrets
close to my heart
to give him all I can
so that in return
I can expect the same
wordless comfort
just his arms around me
letting me feel him there
so I could take solace in him
to find a peace
a balance with him
that cannot be felt
with anyone else
