At least it was found

Cynthia and I had a good talk last night. We were watching Amelie and the love story brought out emotions from my sister that she's never told me. I always thought her first love was her soul mate, but I was wrong. Karlos Xavier G. Apparently had more than her heart. Now that I look back, I see it completely. He was her, but a male. Anal retentive, shop-aholic, high Maintenance , beautiful, and educated. Most importantly, he had a good sense of humor and loved watching the show -a.k.a. the movies.

That's when Amelie came to an end. She and I both watched as amelie rides behind nino quincopaux on his moped. Both in love with their crazy corky idiosyncrasies. Cynthia said, "that's what Karlos and I did, on the island of santerini in Greece. It's my favorite memory. To think I found my soul mate." My heart went out to her. She said she doesn't miss him, but it's like me saying I have small boobs, I'm not fooling anyone. "I just loved how we could sit in front of the TV all day watching movies or TV shows, and after every thing we could still sit and have a conversation, but most importantly we could joke around like fools. I could be myself," she said. She continued, "Don't get me wrong, I love David (her current beau), he's a good man, he'll be a good father to our kids, he'll be loyal to me, and he loves me. Karlos just did something else to me."

Obviously it didn't work out between Karlos and her. He wanted different things. He just couldn't let go of the fast lifestyle. I don't think he considered the consequences, and when he did it was too late, Cynthia and David were already on their road together.

A few weeks ago, Cynthia saw Karlos at a club. They chatted for a bit. During the conversation he admitted he messed up. In double hearsay fashion, she said he said, "I should have married you." Cynthia smiled and went on her way. Hell yah he should have married her, but stupid is as stupid does. That's what you get when you're living the fast life...

You can't resist her.
She's in your bones.
She is your marrow, and your ride home.

You can't avoid her.
She's in the air.
in the air
And in between molecules of Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide.

Only in dreams, you'll see what it means.
Reach out our hands.
Hold on to hers.

But when we wake, it's all been erased.
And so it seems... Only in dreams.


You walk up to her.
Ask her to dance.
She says 'Hey baby, I just might take a chance.'

You say its a good thing.
That you float in the air.
Up where there's no way I will crush
Your pretty toenails into a thousand pieces.

Only in dreams, you'll see what it means.
Reach out our hands.
Hold on to hers.
But when we wake, it's all been erased.
And so it seems... Only in dreams.

Only in dreams.
Only in dreams.
Only in dreams!
Only in dreams!
Only in dreams!
Only in dreams.

You gotta love it.
