Soulmates trying to remain just that

But though the nights with you
my love
so tender and  so calm
as sea waters asleep at night,
I must fight with all my  might.
Those past nights with you
my old love
I cannot let engulf me with their passion
I mustn't let them pull me into a future with no hope.
You are married, 
and my heart is now bound with that of another man.
I can be your friend, I can be your closest friend,
I can be that voice over the phone there for you,
as I want you to be my voice always there for me.
But please don't ask me to be your lover.
