The Soul is All I have

I normally desist from posting writings of other people on my blog. In fact, I have never done that before. Twitter and Facebook are the spaces where I share what I read and like or even dislike. The following string of little poems has, however, compelled me to share somebody else's work. This deeply personal blog warmly welcomes a spontaneous poet friend of mine who wishes to remain anonymous. 
     

        I
The soul is all I have,
Nothing else.
A soul mate
Makes me feel so rich.

        II
The soul is all I have,
Nothing else.
Giving it to you
Makes me feel so rich.

        III
The soul is all I have,
Nothing else.
It turns into a butterfly
When it feels you, my mate.
Be tender , my love
It's all I have.

        IV
The soul is all I have,
Nothing else.
Your smile makes it bloom,
Your tears make it cry.
You can take it , my love
Even though
I have nothing else.

         V
The soul is all I have,
Nothing else.
It needs the wings,
Your love can give.
Love me like you did,
Once before.
Delve into me
So I can soar.
Love me like you did,
Once before.
Caress it with your breath on my brow.
It wants the wings
Your love can give.
Love me
Like you did
Once before!
