I’ve
always sought the perfect partner
At
least that’s what I’ve always said
Is
that really what I’ve searched for
Or
merely noise within my head
I’m
told there is a lover
That’s
intended just for me
A
perfect soul mate in this lifetime
They
say that is my destiny
But
then why is it I’ve suffered
Failed
and failed time and again
Why
am I always disillusioned
Why
always failure in the end
I’ve
always picked what I most wanted
Would
make me happy I would say
The
attraction so compelling
My
ego satisfied that way
But
always something would be missing
Always
there would be something wrong
Trapped
in a sea of endless judgment
Places
where I did not belong
What
was the point of validation
Relationships
consumed in need
No
person really met the standards
I
hoped the next one would succeed
But
perhaps I’ve missed the point
Perhaps
there’s really nothing wrong
Perhaps
I’m merely looking at things backwards
Have
missed the lesson all along
Perhaps
I do not need a trophy
Perhaps
no one to make me whole
Perhaps
it’s not about my needs
Perhaps
that’s not the perfect role
Perhaps
this life is not about me
But
merely what I am about
Not
what I like, feel, want and need to have
But
what inspires me, no doubt
Perhaps
it's very, very simple
To
see the one that it could be
Common
values and desires
Common
purpose, common destiny
Could
there be the perfect partner
Not
partnered in our destiny
Could
there be the perfect partner
That
could not see what I can see
Could
there be the perfect partner
With
values that did not agree
Could
there be the perfect partner
Lacking
the purpose that embodies me
Could
there be the perfect partner
Without abundance
of desire
A
desire so compelling
It
could set the world on fire
I
surrender resignation
No
issues left confusing me
Nothing
else to be considered
The Perfect Partner it must
be
