Until it all Comes Crashing Down

A soulmark. Nearly everyone is born with one. An intricate flower painted into your skin, a testament to who your soulmate is as a person. And nestled among the leaves and petals or dancing along the stem is their name. The flower can be any size, and anywhere on your body. After the two of you meet you will be able to feel things from the other person, from emotions to energy levels. Most importantly of all, the tattoo remains in black and white until the day you meet your soulmate, where it will unobtrusively burst into bright technicolor, reminding you every day of the new joy that the universe has brought into your life.
