Athena opened the book. The voices had ceased now the minute she opened it, she held the first page between her index finger and thumb brushing it from top to bottom feeling the rough texture under her fingertips, contemplating if she should turn the page and read the book. She heard the loud beating of her heart. She was nervous, she simply did not know why.
Finally, after taking in a long breath she turned it over.
Dear soul mate,
Perhaps when you meet me I am nothing like the guy who wrote this letter. It's a moment where I am accepting that I need you. I might not say it, but I need to be saved. I might not show but I am broken.
When you meet me perhaps I am already lost, please be the beacon of light that guides me out of the darkness. I know I am asking for a lot but find that whisper that I buried deep inside of me and resonate the love that it needs.
Allow me in.
