You Soothe My Soul
I love listening to the sound of your voice;
it is the voice I listen for when I'm in doubt,
it is the tone I listen for when I'm in need,
and it is the calming pitch I listen for when I question life.
I love looking into your eyes;
they are the color I look for when I need reassurance,
they are the shape I look for when I need to feel desired,
and they completely make me melt when I look deep into them.
I love the way you smile while looking at me;
it is the smile I look for when I'm feeling silly,
it is the smile I look for when we make each other laugh,
and it is your contagious smile that makes me feel alive.
I love every moment of our marriage;
it is the love I need to survive,
it is the love every woman desires from her man,
and it is the love I only dream to know from you,
the man who soothes my soul.
About this poem
From the moment I met my husband at age 17, we knew we were soulmates and destined to be together. We married 7 years later and will celebrate our 25th anniversary this year (2023). This poem is my heart speaking directly to his, for all to see..I hope everyone has a chance to feel this kind of love in their lifetime..
