1000 Souls
If 1000 people were to cross paths,
And 10 were to stop and meet,
What chance would there be that their souls would be aligned?
To find the perfect match to who you are,
The perfect companion to what you will become,
What chance is there that you would meet?
How many of us have met that person and never known?
How many have had our time and lost them to tragedy?
How many of us have tasted the freedom of our hearts,
Because that person removed the shackles?
But what do you do when uncertainty looms?
How long do you mourn, or let yourself hurt?
How long do you fight for that love?
Do you let it go? Do you hold on tight or do you wait to see?
These we struggle with every day, this I struggled with now...
My heart has been freed, but my soul has been split in two.
I'm stuck at a crossroads, do I fight, wait or move on?
A great piece that causes
A great piece that causes introspection for the reader. You should never be shackled to anyone or anything in your life. Unfortunately, life places some demands we cannot escape if we desire things that require some amount of accountability for our actions...ie: you desire a particular mate, the relationship has rules. No one wants to ever feel as though they are placing restraints on another, but very few people are willing to call what is a mere "association" with another person, a "relationship worthy of monogamy". Also, most people would say that it is different when you share the same roof than it is when simply sharing time together. Once you share the same roof with an individual (any individual whether you are in a romantic relationship or not), you make it serious to the world, because then there also much bigger legal responsibilities to be accountable for within the confines of the relationship. But if it is just a situation where someone is lolly gagging around so that they can get out of sharing any accountability for a serious relationship...personally, unless you are in the market for that type of relationship, tell them to get lost. Lmao.
....ps if this is real life for you...sincerely, good luck.

"No", she replied, "but I have experienced it. "
There is always truth and
There is always truth and 100% visibility into my life when I write, its always been that way and it likely always will be. Very rarely will I write on a fictional topic as I once have in the past (ie. The Lone Wolf, and one i haven't posted The Warrior). What I was getting at is, having that feeling of entrapment because you aren't sure about yourself, we have so many insecurities as humans and finding that one person who completes you, your Soul Mate as it were, could be such a positive experience. That person that can free you from your insecurities and make you feel comfortable in your own skin, understanding that the only requirements you need from each other are respect and love, from there all rules that might normally need to be place on a relationship become inconsequential because you already know what is and isn't. All unease and is gone from your mind and when something happens its dealt with in a respectful manner without blame and anger but with understanding and a goal to move forward together to a better life. Its rare that anyone find that in such a manner but its harder to deal with when its lost, especially having experienced it and knowing anything else will likely never compare.
Mmm. I see. Thank you for
Mmm. I see. Thank you for your comment.
(Even though now I feel even more picky than I already am :-D )
So now what? I hope you figure it out. Some people say that a true soulmate is one who comes into your life and is a kindred spirit, but who also has a way about them that inspires you to challenge yourself, and not always a person who you will "be with" in a romantic sense. Maybe this is your challenge.

I sure hope I figure it out
I sure hope I figure it out as well...
I really appreciate your comments, and your insight. I really do like that outlook of a true soulmate, I do feel like this person makes me want to challenge myself and continue to grow as the person I am. Whatever might come, their involvement in my life is important whether romantic or not. I feel like even now I will still have a friend, although communication has paused for now as has romantic involvement. For now I focus on myself and when it's time to talk I can explain my side and at the very least work towards a friendship. I sure do like a challenge that is for sure and I can only do my best.
