Elevate

I tell myself you’re out there

The other half I’m searching for

The one that I’m meant to complete

That we’ll fill each other’s edges in

And make that almost perfect shape

We’ll elevate each other

To the heights we belong

But the more I tell myself

The less that I believe

And with all the mistakes I’ve made

I worry that maybe I’ve already found you

And blown it

And I’ll never even know

I’m not sure what would be worse

But I’ll keep waiting

And looking

And hoping that I’m right

And someday I’ll get to fill

The hole that I’ve felt in my soul

Ever since I could understand

What a soul mate is
