As I look up to the heavens -
On a warm summers' night -
I envision all the twinklings -
As the stars give off their light...

And somewhere out among them
there's only one for me -
In my heart...I've looked forever,
In my mind...I cannot see -
Just which star, way out there...
Is that perfect one for me...

So in vain and in confusion -
I have wandered through this life...
Searching for that "just right" soul-mate...
That eludes me day and night.

Like countless waves upon the beaches -
like grains of desert sand -
All the stars that I've examined -
have became vapors in my hand...

So I'll just keep on sifting -
Through the moments of each day...
To satisfy a heart-felt longing...
That my soul will have it's way...

Maybe, perhaps just maybe -
Some day, my star will fall...
Her glory will be mine for ever -
A "soul-mate" - - - After all.....

A man's heart often cannot see the light - because of the darkness of it's own motives.... - James David

This is almost like reading an auto-biography. Very heartfelt - the last stanza is absolutely perfect...{hope epitomized}
