The Unknown Soulmate

by The Angel of Secrets   Oct 29, 2008


I know you would not recognize me if you now saw my face,
I'd just be something temporary that took your eyes passing place.
I am the love and the embrace you will never again feel,
I'm the muse of your music, the fantasy to the surreal.

I was the lyrics you wrote loving, yet soon threw away,
I was the words on your tongue when you didn't know what to say.
I was the inspiration you had when you wrote it all,
I was the captor of your heart when it head to the edge of fall.

I was the tear on your face when you thought you couldn't live,
I was the soughing sound you made when you thought you had nothing more to give.
I was the little voice whispering it was going to be okay,
But you chose not to listen, and you tossed my soul away.

I was the half you always needed and the half you still do,
You just never realized how much my voice mattered to you.
I was the love of your life, the sticks from your drum-set,
You never knew you wanted me, not now, not yet.

You hurt when you lost me, even though you didn't see,
That the lost pieces of your soul, had once been me.
When you neglected your destiny, your secrets and your heart,
I could no longer fight to keep your world from falling apart.

I was the idea you forgot and never again saw,
An idea so romantic, so complete and so raw.
You threw me away into a lonely garbage bin,
Which I now live crushed together and forgotten in.

    This poem is one of the most beautiful pieces I have ever read! The combination of simple and more complex language here is amazing!

    The four stanza structure of aabb rhyming, a classoc... The subject is one many can relate to...

    The choosing of words was perfect in every single place, and the metaphores were imaginable and easy to relate to.

    An excellet work, deserves even more than a 5/5!

    I enjoyed this poem. It's not normally an area that I vote in.

    I really liked the simile's that were all through the poem and the metaphores that were between the similes that really did this poem justice. I felt that it was a wonderful poem and enjoyed each comparison to the next. It's truly great and think that you're a very talented writer.

    The first of the poem really started off forced, I thought it was just going to be a force rythme that was off and on. Flow as off and the rythme scheme really showed that.

    I was the soughing sound you made when you thought you had nothing more to give.

    *sighing* I believe it suppose to be. You can also remove "more" out of there because "nothing to give." is really just the same. I know it's a little picky, but little things add up to the big ones.

    I really liked this poem and thought it was wonderful and really worth the read. It's one of the better love poems that I've read in so long that I can't remember.
