The Other half of me
Plato told a fabulous tale
of two souls so meant to be
that when they met together
she completed he.
For so it was with us, my Love,
from childhood's first shy glance.
For far longer than most married folk
we shared Love's sweet slow dance.
Now it seems you want a break
We no longer are a pair;
At parties where we'd both attend
there is one empty chair.
Our once shared bed is empty, too.
This place I toss and turn.
Faint fragrant traces of perfume
remind me why I yearn.
A brief lacuna in our life
I hope this proves to be.
If this parting is forever
were we never meant to be?
I've lost the best part of myself,
our friends so clearly see.
Like part of Plato's soul I seek
the other half of me.
