The One Soul

Since, I think my eighteenth year on earth, I have been meeting a lot of new people. Yet, they don’t usually stay too long in my days and time.

Not that I never liked them, not that I let our differences impede.

If not, then why?

Have you ever experienced meeting a person whom you think would be someone great to fill in the rest empty rooms in your life, yet the more you know things about him, the more you hold back from making him a stable part of you?

I have, during many points in time.

Why?

Because the more I know about the so many things that have happened to him in the past, the more I know about the many people that have been significant to him since the beginning of time, the more I know about the changes he had been through all those times...the more I am convinced that I am no longer welcomed.

I have felt this, so many times. I have allowed a number of souls to just pass by.

But for once, I was able to keep a single soul.

Since our first meeting, he shared a million experiences and moments all throughout his existence that I have never witnessed, shared a million people I have never had a chance to cross paths with, shared a lot dimensions of himself I have not imagined he could be. Yet, never have I felt that I can never catch up and be within his circle of life-long companions.

It was just a single soul that I was able to keep, that I still keep, and I will forever keep. But then, I never felt sorry, for that one soul weighs way more than that of all the other souls that I just allowed to overtake me.

Happy one month baby, I love you=)
