soulmate

hazy, almost unexistent, you
suddenly intrude into uncontrolled thoughts,
stirring unrestrained passions.
i'm afraid i'll never find you
in this lifetime.
i feel your presence
but you're not here,
and i bleed for unsaid
hellos and goodbyes.

i see a part of you
in everyone i hold,
but you're not there
when i look again
and i know
it wasn't you
all the time.

fate has a way
of hurting.
and truth is often painful.
you are destined
for another time and space
while i go through
this lonely journey
alone
in search
of you.
