An Open Letter To My Platonic Soulmates

You have always been there for me, even if romance isn't involved

An Open Letter To My Platonic Soulmates
Passions in Poetry

I always believed a person only had one lover; one soulmate; one deep connection. But then I met the two girls who made me fall in love in the friendliest way possible. They showed me friendship, true love, and the basis to how I want to be treated for the rest of my life. When they came into my life I thought that spot was full, I thought I had my soulmate. But the unromantic love they gave me showed me something I would’ve never understood if they didn’t come into the picture. They showed me real love, the rare form of love. From the random phone calls, the long letters of appreciation, the candid photos of me. All of this showed what I was lacking in my lover, in turn saving me from a future of pain. I learned that they were my soulmates; that I was lucky enough to be blessed with two girls who are fully in love with me, in the most amazing way possible. I don’t want to say they saved me, however, I want to say they aided me on the way to saving myself. Words cannot explain how grateful I am for the two girls I call my best friends and soulmates. Some people fall in love once and that’s it, however I fell in love and it was a waste of my time. My two lovers came into my life when I was vulnerable and very confused. They took me, sheltered me and gave me a reason to love again. I may not marry the two girls I call my soulmates, but they’ll be there when I do get married. They have provided me with the blueprints to true love; how love should really be. I am blessed. I have been hurt in love, but I have also conquered it and felt it in the rarest form. So to my platonic soulmates, to Christie and Alexis, thank you for choosing me. I may not be in a romantic relationship but I do have all the love I need. All others seem to irrelevant and useless.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
