Once Again

Once again, I tried to love, so I tore down my wall and let him in. Once again, he has torn my heart apart. 

So forever more the wall he had torn down I have built it higher than before. 

They say there is a soul mate for everyone so is mine the one I had at sixteen and God had taken from me at twenty or do I just not have a soul mate that everyone happens to have that makes them happy and the love that I am missing?

If he is tearing your heart apart,he is not the one for you.It sounds like you are looking a little to hard for your soul mate.Don't dwell on the past or you will waste your life.When the time is right he will come to you. :o)
