"Giving someone a piece of your soul is better than giving a piece of your heart. Because souls are eternal" -Helen Boswell
Hello, soulmate. I believe that we have met already. If not, I don't know what we were, because it was more powerful than a lot of forces in the universe. Chances are, it did not work out, and maybe that is okay. I think that there is a common misconception about soulmates. Many people believe that this is who we are supposed to be with for the rest of our lives, that this person is undeniably our other half, inevitably. Perhaps that is not always the case, or perhaps timing is crucial to this balance. The connection between soulmates is delicate, after all.
A soulmate is somebody, completely apart from every other human on Earth, who replicates our feelings, our personalities, and all of our deepest desires in life. There is an irrevocable and infinite string between us, soulmate. When I look in a mirror, I see you in my reflection, each and every day. I have seen your reflection long before we even met. I do not have any other way of knowing how you feel apart from knowing that since I am your soulmate as well, I know that you feel it, too.
I think you'll be the first to agree that perhaps our timing just wasn't right, and that the odds were not completely in our favor. We fell in love in the warmer months, when the sun stayed in the sky for 10 hours and the only worry was if we had enough time to do everything that we wanted to before the sun set. We fell in love when it was easiest, not realizing what was to come. We were in love, but sometimes love just is not enough.
I suppose that I am writing this to say that I do not regret anything that has happened, for I have met you and that is enough. Of all of the people that could have been my soulmate, I am glad that it is you. You understand me in such a way that cannot even be described, and vise versa. I am writing this to let you know that I still understand you, and I still see your reflection in myself every day, and I hope you do the same. We didn't have the choice to pick our soulmate, so I think we're doing pretty well. Thank you, soulmate, for teaching me so much about myself. Thank you, soulmate, for existing, because without you I would only be half of what I am now. Maybe someday we will come back at a better time.
Thank you.
