Patton's POV

I would find love.

I hoped.

I had black stains on my fingers.

On the tips, in fact.

I was losing hope.

Virgil's POV

I always believed. I always had hope that one day, I would find them. I never gave up, like a child believing in Santa. But as a child grows, they find out the harsh truth.

So I must now accept the harsh truth. There is no Santa. There is no one for me.

Was I broken?

All my life I had feared death, suppressed dealing with the notion, never ready to depart.

But now, I accepted it.

Gone.

That's exactly how I felt.

Lost.

Weird.

I was grieving for someone I didn't even know.

I was lost.

Music hit my ears.

Mr. Blue Sky, please tell us why
You had to hide away for so long, so long
Where did we go wrong?
Mr. Blue Sky, please tell us why
You had to hide away for so long, so long
Where did we go wrong?

For the people with soul mates.

Not me.

Yesterday,
All my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh, I believe in yesterday.

I believed.

I think I'm going to be sad
I think it's today, yeah
The girl that's driving me mad
Is going away.

Why did I feel strange?

Here I stand head in hand
Turn my face to the wall
If she's gone I can't go on
Feeling two-foot small
Everywhere people stare
Each and every day
I can see them laugh at me
And I hear them say..

Because I was.

You're going to lose that girl
You're going to lose that girl
I'll make a point
Of taking her away from you, yeah
The way you treat her what else can I do?
You're going to lose that girl
You're going to lose that girl
I'll make a point
Of taking her away from you, yeah
The way you treat her what else can I do?

That's what happened.

Someone killed my soulmate?

The day breaks, your mind aches
You find that all her words of kindness linger on
When she no longer needs you

She wakes up, she makes up
She takes her time and doesn't feel she has to hurry
She no longer needs you...

Maybe.

Maybe I had a platonic soulmate.
