Waiting For The Light

I've been told
Everyone has a soul mate
Yet the possibility of none
Is never spoken of
The probability of dying a lonely maid
Is never discussed
Such notions are simply
Unwanted

Somewhere beyond my tears
Is there a faithful man
Awaiting my arrival
Across the mountains of heartache
Will there be a loving specimen
Praying for my survival

If there is a soul mate for me
Then what is this wasted time for
Was it vital for me to be struck
By the blade of deceit
As I struggle to defeat disappointment
Will there be more

Was it really imperative
That my heart be broken
Along this exhausting journey
I'm trying to find the logic
In waiting for a good thing
But haven't I waited long enough

I may have found this soul mate
He may have already stood before me
The man I speak of
May have fallen victim to the last man's crime
What if I took my anger out on him
And along with his love
Left my final chance

Somewhere past my sorrow
Will I find a love to clear these skies
At the finish of healing
Will I be greeted with purities eyes
Below the clouds of hopelessness
I eagerly await the light
