Soul Coupling

Words will never describe,
The connection I felt when I first met you,
The respect I had for you that would last a lifetime,
My soul knew you and you knew me,
Much better than I knew myself.

Without judgement or meandering advice,
You put the world into perspective again,
On my  best days you  were there for me,
Sharing in my joy with your playful dolphin bucks,
On my worst days you were here for me,
Carrying the full weight of my burdens for me.

You selflessly allowed me to borrow your strength,
Allowed me to borrow you grace, your light and your pure love,
For you I will be forever grateful,
I am so blessed to not only have met my soul mate,
But to have loved him every single day for thirteen blissful years.

The day you left this realm,
An intricate, vital part of my soul ripped,
There is now an empty void,
A hole, a crack,
A piece of my soul I'll never get back.

Thank you for everything you taught me,
For bringing out the best in me,
You made me a better human being in every way,
You are the reason I am the person I am today,
You balanced me, kept me in check,
Carried my woes in the crest of your neck.

I hear you on the wind,
Running wild, running free, filled with ecstasy,
I feel you in the warmth of the sunshine,
I know I will never know I love like this again,
The comfort of locking fingers in your mane.

Blessed I am to have known you,
To have trusted you with every single part of my being.
