This poem really seems to describe someone's "soulmate." My question is, does everyone have a soulmate? Is there someone out there for everyone that completes that person? It makes me wonder if you think that you're with the right person, is there someone better?
I know at this age when people fall in love with someone they think everything is perfect and there is no one better out there for them. It really makes me wonder though, how are you supposed to know if someone really is your "soulmate?"
Also, what qualities should a soulmate have? Obviously they can't be perfect because no one is perfect. But I ask, what is it that can make someone your "soulmate?"
I think that this poem explains it very well saying that no matter what happens, through thick or thin, your soulmate will love you no matter what. Your soulmate will love you "till a' the seas gang dry and the rocks melt wi' the sun."

Katie, You bring up some interesting points to ponder...how does our current culture define "soulmate," "love," and what are ways we "look for love?" Your post makes me think of all of those online matchmatching services out there. I wonder how the descriptions people write about themselves or about their "dream mate" compare with this poem's depiction of love? Are there any similarities/differences you can think of?
