Finding You by V1NC3

this whole life and many past i have been searching
searching for the one person who really gets me
who understands every level of my being
my mind
my heart
and my tortured soul
i settled for one that understood me only partly for a long time
too long in fact
7 years too long
i thought i could do no better
i thought there was no such thing as another human being that truly equaled my emotional and spiritual passion as well as my need to analyze the world on every level
but after the fall of my 7 year attempt to force myself to share all of this with someone who never truly understood
i found you
and i saw what i was missing all along
the perfect match
to my mind
to my heart
to my tortured soul
i see now that it was always you
it just took me several lifetimes and even more failed attempts at love with people that i thought could feel as passionately as i do about life and love
but could never match my desire or steadfast belief in such passion
because no one but you feels pain like i do
in the physical realm or on the ethereal plane
you are my perfect woman
my soul's compliment and completion
as i know you always have been
and my spirit will never leave you
i will not waste any more of my energies on chasing loves that just can't work
because your love is all i've ever needed
and all i ever will need
to be whole
there is no question about that
not a single doubt in my mind
i only have one question left
one burning inquiry which can only be answered by the fates themselves.....
why in the name of the goddess did i not find you sooner?
but i think i know the answer
i think i was looking too hard to find you
because it was not a matter of searching
it was a matter of destiny
so i'll stop questioning now
and follow what my spiritual center says is right
and give you all i have left
because you deserve nothing less

the subject of this poem knows exactly who she is and what it means, the rest of you can interpret it however you see fit.
