Playing with Ghosts

Do you believe in fated souls, that somewhere out in this big wide world there is one single person that is destined for you? One person out of billions that was hand crafted and moulded to be your missing piece, your one true love, your soul mate. Somewhere out there, is the thing that you have been unknowingly searching for as you bounce one person to the next, clocking up an impressive list of failed relationships and one-night stands. It's irrelevant how much effort you put in to make those relationships work because they are destined to fail. That isn't the person fate has paired you with, that's just the person fate has given you to keep you busy until your path finally crosses that of your soul mates. Yeah, personally I think its all a load of crap. Soulmates, one true love and all that nonsense is just what the romantics of this fine earth tell themselves to feel better about yet another failed attempt at the dating game while pouring copious amounts of alcohol down their necks. Okay, so I'll admit I do sound a little cynical and jaded regarding the matter. The honest truth of it all is I just don't believe in it. Sure, I believe in love, of course love is real. I just don't believe that there is only one person in this whole planet that is meant for another and no one else. It's ridiculous, and I personally will not allow such a childish and over romanticised notion to have control over my emotions, or be the explanation for such intense, confusing and well, yeah, unexplainable emotions and feelings. God, listen to me, I sound like a crazy person ranting about true love not being real. I have a valid reason for my out of the blue ranting, truly I do. It has everything to do with this soul mate bullshit everyone loves to harp on about. You see, its said that everyone has a story of how they met their soul mate, their one true love. It almost always starts with hearts and flowers, rainbows and unicorns, princess', princes. Shit, even knights in golden friggin armour and all that other happy mushy crap. Almost always starts that way. . . but sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes the story is a little on the darker side. Sometimes its starts with hatred and anger, violence and cruelty, monsters, demons and knights in black blood-stained armour. Sometimes true love doesn't always come hand in hand with your so-called soul mate. Sometimes you can detest the one your soul is fated to. Sometimes the person the soul that is bound for yours is inside of can be as close to being the devil as humanly possible. Your soulmate might not even want to be tied to you and you to them. None of that matters though. If this whole soul mate and destiny bullshit is real. If it's truly meant to be. It wont matter how much hate, anger, violence, blood and even death it takes to get there, that's where you will end up . . . Regardless if your heart still beats or not.
