The idea of soulmates. In the time before humans the universe was quiet. Stars glittered in the darkness. Then, an explosion happened, a sparkling burst of heat, and the stars were turned to dust. This dust was used to make humans. Each star able to make two people. These people were set on the earth and cursed with finding The other part of themselves. The stardust strains and pummels the human body until it finds its other half. They are soulmates.
I feel like we were a star. But when we exploded you got mixed with the wreckage of another. So I strain towards you, yet you strain towards another. Every nerve in my body feels like you are the one. But you don't feel as much, because your pull isn't as forceful and demanding as mine. I'm pulled towards you every second of every day. I have to use all of my willpower to not run to you. Sometimes I think, "maybe we're not from the same star, just similar composition." Yet my half of the star, that's been searching for millions of years, has become desperate. But your half is new to this world. Excited and free from its opposing voice. Not ready to settle down quite yet. And now I'm so conflicted that I can't think of anything but stardust and the despair that follows.
