Soulmate

I wanted to write this about my soul mate.

But i haven't met her yet.

I thought i did.

But it was only a deep love.

One so deep i still can't talk about it.

But she wasn't my soul mate.

A soul mate could never hurt you the way i was hurt.

Your pain is their pain.

And they wouldn't do that to themselves.

She destroyed me.

And when the pieces were finally put back together,

Their was a piece missing.

Maybe gone forever.

I don't know...

Maybe my soul mate has it.

And when i find her i will be whole again.

-- when i read your poetry, sometimes i think you have found a thought or hope that completely escaped me... -- i tend to lean on despair... as in on the assumption... that there could be no spring... that winter is permanent and that we can never recover from the frost bite of the soul... -- but here on this page, i see the poetry of possibility... of leaning on a hope of happiness and even bliss...

The people we love the most are the ones who can also hurt us the most because the emotions, both good and bad, go deep into our soul. People think that finding your soul mate will make the relationship simple but that's not the case. Soul mates push each other to be better, they make mistakes, they hurt each other, they drive you crazy but at the end of the day none of that matters. They love each other unconditionally and only wants what is best for the other person even if it means they might lose them. Soulmates hurt each other but they never give up because of the flaws of the other.
It is our broken pieces that fit with out soul mates missing pieces. No one who has ever loved is ever whole. We give a piece of ourselves every time we love someone and the reason we never get it back is because when you truly love you never stop. It just changes.
