One-sided soulmate

Nothing will ever hurt me more than yesterday. It was perfect. I remember my touch upon your skin, tracing your pefect curves. I laid there beside you praying that this night would not end. Hoping for a miracle. I wish I had gone to sleep.

Because only 6 months ago I ran into you for the first time. Although I felt I had known you for so much longer. I could feel my soul yearn for yours and in that moment I knew we were destined to be eachother's forever.

I approached you slowly as you played the beautiful piano that sat in the middle of my favourite store. That bookstore was my second home and I had never heard the piano sing quite like it did that day. If wasn't made of wood I would have swore I saw it smile.

"I am sorry" I blurted out after you had caught me staring

"Its okay, you can sit if you'd like," you said gesturing at the space on the bench.

I sat down, heart beating faster than ever before. You brought your hands to the keys and I could see your fingers tremble as if this was foreign territory. As if you hadn't just played a masterpiece.

"I am sorry, I seemed to have forgotten what I was about to play" you said giggling shyly and tried again.

The same melody came from that piano in that moment as has been on repeat in my mind ever since. You played Schubert's "Ava Maria." I took you home that night. I couldn't help myself. I could tell you couldn't either both of us brimming with more emotions and passion then could ever be spent in one night.

When I awoke the next morning though, and you were gone. Without a trace or explaination. You must have had a reason though. I can't stand the thought of it having been a one sided love. I swear I felt your soul open up to mine. I swear.

So, I have waited patiently at this piano for 6 months. Hoping for your return. It wasn't yesterday. But it feels like it was and it will continue to, as I remind myself of you every day. Relive the memory and each detail, hoping one will lead me to you.
