Then I met my soulmate.
We were the lucky ones for a moment in time that I wish had stood frozen.
We defied the odds.
God & Man
Then we said goodbye.
Our first conversation became our only conversation in person.
It is the love with the person they call The One That Got Away.
God & Man
It is the love that is mutual but evanescent.
We think when we are young that we will connect with many people across our lives.
I have always held the belief that there is no such thing as right timing.
What if they are hesitant to take a leap of faith because they have not been caught before?
It is not your job to convince anyone to meet you halfway across the bridge.
It is also not your job to keep waiting if it impinges on your mental peace.
You have every right to walk away when the wait becomes unbearable.
But what if you cross paths with the right person once again?
What if your soul recognizes their soul all over again?
What if the second goodbye hurts as much as the first one?
Perhaps you will bring back the one that got away.
Perhaps you would let them go this time for the sake of their own happiness.
You would leave behind the toxicity and bitterness while embracing peace and acceptance.
You would wish them the best for their future and remember them in your prayers.
We know that they exist.
Perhaps so that you could remind yourself that you did not imagine them.
They were the most real being you have ever known.
