they say that when you find the one
you will know it
like an overwhelming sense of security
you will know

i always wondered
why i gave myself to souls that didn't care
i knew deep down that i deserved better
but day after day
year after year
i found myself in an undeniable loop
like a tear in my galaxy i was caught

one day i met someone
someone different
his skin soft and his eyes warm
for the first time i believed in fate
as cliché as it sounds
a chilled day in october
i discovered love
real love to die for
i witnessed it with my own eyes

why am i writing?
maybe a reminder to my future self of this feeling
maybe to let others know things will turn around
whatever the reason, i've found warm and honest love
it does exist
