Whatever our souls are made of, hoping for it to be the same.

We often think we crave for someone’s presence, love or attention. We crave for their soul to touch ours. We long and ache to find someone with whom we can have a meaningful relationship with, and our souls crave to find another of its kind. Whatever our souls are made of, hoping for it to be the same. Someone  whom you don’t just touch physically but someone whose soul you can touch. Not very often do you meet someone who understands you from within, who has been to the darkest of places in your mind and left a lit candle there.

People say when you find this ‘someone’ you shouldn’t ever let them go. If you do, your heart will break and your soul will die.

But what if I told you this might just be a fairy tale that has been passed on for ages? What if there are no soulmates? What if there are no souls that are alike? What if… you die with the thought of finding them some day?

You are what you need. Sure, it would make living easier if you had someone to hear you out, to stick around when everyone else left. But remember it has to be you. You to save yourself. You to live your life. You to be alive. You to make yourself move forward. You to be your own solution. You to make yourself happy, happier than ever before.

Remember. It has to be you.

Sure, there are people who found their ‘soulmates’ but there are people who managed to live their life perfectly without one too.

There is a beautiful thing inside you that is thousands of years old.

Too old to be captured by poems.

Too old to be loved by everyone.
