Your Arrival

My dearest Soulmate,

I saw yet another red sunset without you. That made me miss you. Is it possible to miss someone you have never met? I suppose I miss the idea of you; you are an intellectual set of requirements and expected behaviour patterns that have yet to take shape as a human being I am acquainted with. Or probably something completely different from what I expect, who knows?

In my whole life those two moments I suffered so, One was before you came, The other after you left.

Very soft winds have been whispering your arrival in my heart. I know that you are coming, there is no doubt about that. It seems that prior to your arrival, the universe has slowly been preparing me by leading me to the strangest and saddest conclusions: our lives and attachments to this material world are marked by impermanence... and even immortality cannot transform the fleeting and evanescent nature of this world into permanent happiness.

I know that finding you does not lead to ultimate happiness. I seek your company not for my own satisfaction anymore... I know that once we are together, I will live to make you happy. I promise that I will make the same writing mistakes that you do, I will always pick boxers of your favorite colours, and I will never let your hand sway without mine. Every single day of our lives I will love you as if it were the last, because now I know how tragic this world is.
