Because you share my mind - <br />two minds in unison - because <br />I need not turn down my light - <br />don a burka hiding the luminous <br />thoughts racing through my head <br /> <br />Two minds in unison - physical <br />unification but a symbol of spiritual <br />unity, because when you ask me - <br />“What do you think? ” - You do not <br />turn away when I tell you - <br /> <br />“Stories from the Bible that have been <br />running through my mind since I was <br />small” - You don’t frown and say you <br />don’t want to know - making me flee <br />into a fantasy of nightly delight <br /> <br />Offering me space to be me, a special <br />soul to release my spirit from anxiety <br />a light being to make me whole - you <br />are the other half of my soul, that is why <br />I love you Rudi and always will, I shall <br /> <br />Keep you in reality, my Rudi, and if you <br />are not accessible, I shall dream of you <br />for eternity, I shall always do…<br /><br />Louise Tredoux<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/why-do-i-love-thee-rudi/
