KINDRED SPIRIT

           Picture by Jordan Thomson

The sounds of empty hearts float on the wind
As feelings of unknown needs mark her as a friend
Eerie the feeling that she has walked already in my shoes
As if life's journey for her was one she did not choose
Is it that I am now where she has already been
Or am I watching her suffer my pains of life again
As if through her eyes is it that I now look at life
Understanding her misery and the reasons for her strife
Odd the feeling of kinship for one I don't really know
While the years of understanding between us doesn't show
This unseen bond of mystical power holding us together
Building a friendship on this magical invisible tether
And how can I explain this feeling without my fearing it
I simply embrace her for I know she is a Kindred Spirit

Author's Note

I leave most punctuation to the reader that they can read the poem in their own meter, mood and motility. I thank you for taking the time to read my work.

There are spirits that match with each other then bond, and there are spirits which differ from one another so they part, like hot air and cold air one goes up, the other stays down, so they don't share the same place with each other.

Insight.

Great piece from beginning to end. Love the image as well!
This one is going in the library. :)

Nice picture you put with this one my friend... Though I must say, "Reflections of Myself" seemed to resonate with me more than "Kindred Spirit" does, however, both are very fitting. :-)

You would think that, can you hear that Carly Simon song in the back ground "La la la you probably think this song is about you" Ha! Ha! Ha!

[ShadowWhysper]

Hehehe... Maybe I should ask how many wolves you know... ;-)

Great flow to the this piece Bear and the rhyme that you display, which I respect so. I like the ending where you are finally free to explain the feelings you have without any fear. Than you are free.

Thanks Robert :~)
