THOUGHT: SOULMATE LOVE

She sits by herself, looking out the window
She sees the clear blue sky,
the leaves blowing in the gentle breeze
and the bright sunshine...
She stares off into the world outside

She thinks...
She wishes, she hopes, she wonders
She wishes she could change things,
She wishes she could do what would make her happy
She hopes her dreams will come true
She hopes she will meet her heart's desire
She wonders what all the years will bring, if it will all work out
She wonders if it's worth waiting and sacrificing for

Far away, he sits by himself, looking out the window
He sees the dark night sky,
the stars and the moon shining brightly above
He hears the rain as it starts coming down...
He stares off into the darkness

He thinks...
He wishes, he hopes, he wonders...



When we speak of soul mates
do we not really mean
heart, mind and soul mates.
Because, would we really want someone
who only loved us for part of the whole.

I think a soul mate is someone who sees the flaws,
yet, loves you more for them,
as they define who you are,
and who always look below... for the beauty,
instead of judging by the shell.

They see our weaknesses but never take advantage.
Instead, they lend strength when needed,
without being intrusive. They are our companions
while letting us still be ourselves,
and giving us room to grow.

It's someone who, while not sharing all your interests,
will respect yours and try to keep a open mind... always.
But most of all a soul mate is someone to trust
with your most precious gift and trust
that you, also, will keep it safe for them..
