The End Of the Line

I fear there is no more hope
for the notion of my finding love
There is no storybook romance
for me
waiting to happen when I least expect
Nor is there the fated movie-like realisation
that he has been right under my nose
the whole time
There is only one hopeless date
after another
after another--
the pool is now a puddle
I used to believe there was
someone for everyone
and by God I still hold on to that creed
But sadly it seems that we live in chaos
and never was it stated that soulmates
were guaranteed to live
in the same time
or the same place...

oh no no no!!! you're the only one I know who always holds on to hope when it comes to relationships and soulmates! if you give up, then there's no hope for any of us...

*sadness*

Oh, honey! I just want to reach through here and give you the biggest hug I can.

The next time I see you, I'm giving you my copy of Eat Pray Live. It gave me a whole new perspective on life, love, myself.

You are so strong and so freaking awesome. Please please please always remember that.
