Teddy-bear

She reaches out,
her soulmate nowhere to be found
Her heart aching to feel his touch
Silent cry, why can't he be here?
Oh how I love him

She suddenly remembers
the teddy-bear her soulmate gave her
Cuddling with the bear isn't the same
as being in his arms but
with promises of dreams of him
She wraps the teddy-bear in her arms and
drifts off to a peaceful sleep
