The Truth of Soulmates

 

If we were soulmates

I would tattoo your name

onto my heart. But we aren't soulmates

and this will not last.

You will disappear into the world someday

and I will be okay because there is bound to be another.

Another body to share a bed with,

another soul to share secrets with,

but for now, I am here on this starry night

wishing your name was tattooed on my heart

and this night would never end.
