Soulful Ties Between Real Soulmates (Sonnet #17) Poem by Tina Baaklini

Family is a matter of the heart
Close bonding is a matter of the soul
Love builds places in the heart, though apart
Soulful ties between real soulmates is all

The body is a mere empty vessel
What we are lies deep, beyond limbs
Our will, love, thoughts, in our inner world dwell
They'll fly to the sky carried by souls' wings

In your heart I found my city of love
Where true tenderness I breathe, elated
We're one, O sweet soulmate, here and above
You're my family, our love is fated

My heart and soul are written in your name
Your soul and mine carry the same love flame
