My Soulmate

My sole companion she was

from birth till now

barely deserting me ever.

I ran from her

but she outran me.

Forced, I accompanied her

in spring, in frost

from hope to dark

from something to nothing.

I feared her, closed my eyes

Still she sat next to me.

I gave up in the end,

realizing the dire fact

She will never leave me.

I sighed and groaned

accepting her feebly

with open arms and huge smiles

My sole friend - my solitude.

But, my pan of fortitude 

empty soon, I prayed

to the Almighty for one visit

to Him in the eventual hope.

I prayed and longed:

At last, granted, He sent

for me, a raven

black as coal with heavenly glow

I glided onto it

but she was already there

Wont she leave me even now?

I spat at her with my ugly words.

He did not even flutter his eyes

I waited days and months together

She was still there -  my soulmate.

At last, I bowed before Him,

He opened his eyes, once

and gifted into my closed hands:

I didn't open open it, I knew 

It was a drop of love.
