You opened my eyes so that I could see myself. <br />I was a dusty old doll until you took me down from the shelf. <br />Through other’s eyes, I was as pretty as could be <br />But you, my love, loved me for me. <br /> <br />We are Romeo and Juliet; we fell in love so swift, so naturally. <br />You are my man, the one from the Turkish legend, sitting by the sea. <br />For you, my sweetheart, I would lay down my very life. <br />I would give you every breath I had if it meant ending all your strife. <br /> <br />Finally I can write again! You have cleared my head. <br />Once more, I can truly laugh! This is destiny, as you said! <br />You’ve ruined me for all other men because I’ll never want another. <br />You are my friend, my soul mate, my everything, and my lifelong lover.<br /><br />Kayla Cooper<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-have-found-my-soulmate/
