Did You Know Our Souls Beat in Sync?

Sometimes i feel you
Bubble and pop
The cream of the crop
The very best parts of me
That won’t ever stop

You make your way through
The beat of my heart
You start as a spark
Uniting me with all
Whether near or apart

I join with you in
The beat of the drum
The heat of the sun
The pounding of the sound
To which i must succumb

A cosmic link through
The core of my soul
Release of control
Surrender my self
To be part of the whole

The final realisation is
We are the same
The water and the flame
The hater and the hated
Or the wild and the tame
