Poetry — Love — Spirituality — Soulmates

The Moon

This piece is in response to a writing theme suggestion by Jocelyn Joy Thomas in the article Writer’s on Medium — Week 6. The new theme? Brightening up each other’s day with a story that makes us smile.

I’m kinda suffering from options paralysis here.

I decided on a poem because the title popped into my head along with the closing line. I love it when the inspiration genuinely comes like a whisper, don’t you?

I have been feeling a calling, a pull, a sensing of a different kind. This subtle distraction is connected to another. Some call them Soulmates, some Divine Counterparts. I feel his presence. It is peaceful, supportive, unconditional, and near. Allowing myself to tune into this new experience, I smile.

Love’s pull Like the moon on the tide Gentle Beckoning I recognize it I don’t know who he is Or where But I feel him

This tender force Quiet Subtly Powerful Calling Guiding me To him

I know he feels it too That siren’s song Drawing two hearts together Anticipation Destiny Waxing He’s out there We are magnets And he’s close
