A NEEDLE IN A HAY STACK
FINDING THE NEEDLE IN A HAY Stack
THE ONE PERSON IN LIFE YOU LACK
ONE CAN SEARCH THEIR WHOLE LIFE LONG
ONLY TO SETTLE ON SOMEONE WHO IS ALL WRONG
IN YOUR DREAMS YOU MIGHT FEEL A ESSENCE THERE
BUT WHEN YOU WAKE ALL YOU FEEL IS DESPAIR
YOU MIGHT CATCH A GLIMPSE IN A STRANGERS EYE
AS YOU ARE PASSING BY
THAT WILL LATER MAKE YOU WONDER AND SIGH
LET YOUR SPIRIT ALWAYS HOPE
AND DON'T GO AROUND AND MOPE
BECAUSE WHO KNOWS?

I hope he makes an appearence soon.
Yes it is a needle in a haystack. The only thing that is a little encouraging is that nowadays with our modern communication...at least we can find more needles. The downside is that they don't necessarily sew up the rips. Thanks for posting.
Two people who are each better together than apart are probably not that rare; but, two people who are the best each can be when together are, more likely, harder to come by. When a relationship truly works, there is no concept of "settling" - it just "feels right". Thanks for sharing.
In my mind, I have this quote that may or may not relate to your poetry...
People say that what we're all seeking is a meaning for life. I don't think that's what we're really seeking. I think what we're seeking is an experience of being alive, so that our life experiences on the purely physical plane will have resonance within our own innermost being and reality, so that we actually feel the rapture of being alive. That's what it's all finally about.
( Quote Joseph Campbell )
Another quote by him
"One thing that comes out in myths is that at the bottom of the abyss comes the voice of salvation. The black moment is the moment when the real message of transformation is going to come. At the darkest moment comes the light."
Yep better to be single than settle for the wrong person, many get it right...always good to let your spirit hope
I hope you found true love and happiness
Thank you for sharing your poem
