As it's the month of love, (or loner month if I will,) I thought this one would be best suited for the occasion.
I can't believe it's Spring 2017 already! I actually used to despise this time of year due to the weather mainly. See, it's cold, so utterly cold, but the sun is shining? It makes no sense, it's almost like a false hope.
But that's changed over the past few days. I've started seeing things in a completely new, colourful light. I woke up one morning last week and felt unstoppable. The world could have thrown anything at me, and I was ready!
Soul Mates is a creation I never once believed I'd be the master of. The night I wrote it, I was tucked up in bed, the television was on in the background and my heart just danced to the rhythm of my words. I never used to believe "soul mates" to be the spiritual union of lovers. I always believed they were two friends, with opposite paths in life. They would find each other, teach each other the things they do not know. Piece each other together as much as they possibly can, and move on. They weren't all the missing pieces to each other, they were only some. They were temporary, and they would leave again.
And this somehow made me feel a little better about my short-lived friendships. But I wanted a text-book "soul mate", a person who would be all the missing pieces, a long term friend, a romantic partner, a lifelong significant other. I wanted another half to complete me.
I wanted to be wrong.... And the dreamer in me still does.

Soul Mates
Can I keep you in my pocket,
And bring you around everywhere I go?
I have a wonderful little idea for you and me,
Do you want to know?
We meet eyes across a dark world,
And we cause an explosion of light.
Our bodies shiver, that warming, joyful kind,
And the feeling rushes from our hearts, just like a plight.
Our hands fit together perfectly,
And we kiss like Eskimos in their igloos.
We can build up a small house on a hilltop,
With a glass ceiling, if you choose?
I know how much you love the night sky,
And you know I love it too.
I would lay there with you always,
As the skies turn from blue to black, and black to blue.
On our hilltop, we'd be surrounded by green grass,
And flowers would grow between each blade.
There would be a tall tree overhanging our small house,
And, on hot days, we would sit under it for some shade.
I'd make you laugh just to see that amazing smile,
And your eyes would twinkle brighter than the moon.
You'd pull me closer and let me stand on your toes,
As we both danced to our favourite tune.
You'd whisper words no one has ever told me,
Three words that mean so much more.
And you'd wonder as we get lost in each other's eyes,
If our hearts had once known each other before..
If I keep you in my pocket,
My dreams may one day come true.
You'll meet my eyes across the dark world
And then I can live happily, in the light, with you.
