Spiritus
By Olivia Nicole McLean
I will not share my soul with another
I will not divide my spirit.
My heart goes with you and does not wander—
I am steady in my resolve to love you alone.
What mysterious fate has tethered my existence to yours?
What strong force can turn me away?
There is none—
For near or far away, I am with you—
My heart to stay.
