The Last Soulmate

The Last Soulmate I turned to Love and asked her, "At long last is this my best day?" Love's fickle eyes swift averted as she gave her cold answer, "Nay." I turned to Hope and beseeched her, "Do you lurk deep in Love's domain?" With a careless shrug Hope replied, "From all promise I must abstain." I turned to Faith and pressed her, "Will your constancy yet hold sway?" Faith sighed and casually replied, "Pledges are made to be betrayed." I turned to Desire and bid her "Will you the full distance go?" Desire's soft voice was coldly lent, "I may dampen passion fire's glow." I turned to Loneliness and asked, "Shall you then be my heart's parole?" Loneliness took my hand and sighed, "I'm the last mate of your numb soul."
