In Search of that Perfect Day...

I’m looking for that perfect day. Most of you have probably experienced it at least one time in your life. When you meet someone for the first time and their words soothe you like a newborn baby in its mother’s arms. They are the sword of life that defeats loneliness. In but a mere heartbeat they remind you that you’re not the only one who likes what you like, or thinks how you think.

Your minds shake their invisible hands in agreement, your eyes constantly remain together in a sweet embrace, and the world finally seems right again. No more waiting. No more searching. Being with them is how you breathe. You feel alive once again, far from the endless sea of solitude.

It’s not a dream because I’ve tasted it. But something so great can never last if the unending selfishness of others keeps pushing this potential eternity from my grasp. So my hands remain open, with my arms forever outstretched. I yearn for that sweet, perfect day that will finally turn into a lifetime.
