Half Empty, Half Whole (Free verse) by Rainbow_chaser

Memories of times long past lay heavy on my soul, A life of utter loneliness slowly takes its toll. I hold a dream deep within, of a time when we will reunite, We have yet to meet in this life, But we will feel it at first sight. I call to you each night, Do you hear my calls?, do you hear me plead?, I yearn to fill the void, find completion you hold everything left that i need. Times are tough but i still hold dear, to the time when we shall meet, With you and I working as a team there is no challenge we cannot beat. Come to me my love, i ache to find a home im your embrace, Our hearts will become as one again When we come face to face. So until that day my love, I shall sit patiently and wait, For i want you and only you My other half, my soul mate ??Autumn Dawe

Anytime you start a poem out with something weighing on the "soul," you are setting up a scenario of melodramatic failure. The whole "Woe is Me" style seems dated and our language gives us so many other options. I understand the sentiment is genuine, but the actual poem is a bit youthful and doesn't really amount to much but a good attempt.
