I wake In the early hours of dawn.
My body is terribly tried and complains with a yawn.
I am covered in the moisture of my own sweat.
But I know there will be no sleep for me, not yet.

I take up a seat at the window and I think of you,
then my eyes wonder to the incredible view.
I watch the sunrise just begin to lighten the sky.
The picture it so slowly reveals brings tears to my eyes.

The dark blue outline of the mountain peaks,
seem to hide the many colors I know lay beneath.
Then the clouds begin to slowly sneak in.
The mountains invite them as if they were old friends.

Ever so slowly the clouds caress and kiss the mountain peaks.
It is the most beautiful sight I have seen in weeks.
I am reminded then of how it will be with you.
How the two of us together will be so natural and true.

As the clouds lower themselves down and blanket the mountains peaks.
The dark harsh blue lines are softened, by the white cotton lace.
So softly and gently the two begin to merge.
To describe what I feel I have not the words.

The two lay together for hours it seems,
while the rest of the world continues to dream.
You can almost hear them whisper sweet words of love,
as the sun continues to rise above.

When the clouds lift as if they had wings,
You can see the true nature and beauty of things.
The dark blue bleakness has been washed away,
and bright colors of life are now visible with a promise of a new day.

Just as your touch on me will one day awaken something sleeping inside,
the clouds have uncovered the mountains hidden surprise.
But now that the world is awake with a new day,
I must somehow find the strength to put these thoughts away.

I take one last look at the wondrous view,
And I gather my courage as I think of you.
I tell myself we will one day share the same sky,
And I wipe the last of the tears from my weeping eyes.

“Love, above all things, is a commitment to your choice.”
― Rob Liano

“I'd rather die holding on to the love I believe in, than to live embracing a love that's a lie.”
― Stephan Labossiere

“Forget the adage Win/Win and make a commitment to Learn/Learn. Win/Win is good, but implies an end. Once you win, then what? Learn/Learn creates a paradigm of ongoing value. This creates a Learn/Learn situation. I learn about you and you learn about me. And we learn from each other.”
― Ted Rubin

I'm human, so I make mistakes. Some small, some big. But they don't define me, nor do opinions. I'm perfectly imperfect, & if you think about it, so are you.... Nishan Panwar

People think a soul mate is your perfect fit, and that's what everyone wants. But a true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that is holding you back, the person who brings you to your own attention so you can change your life.

A true soul mate is probably the most important person you'll ever meet, because they tear down your walls and smack you awake. But to live with a soul mate forever? Nah. Too painful. Soul mates, they come into your life just to reveal another layer of yourself to you, and then leave.

A soul mates purpose is to shake you up, tear apart your ego a little bit, show you your obstacles and addictions, break your heart open so new light can get in, make you so desperate and out of control that you have to transform your life, then introduce you to your spiritual master...
