Notes About The Poem

MULTIVERSE ME

MULTIVERSE ME* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What if I've lived the exact present I’m living now before, doesn't it make sense to think of it as though... there is another part of me in another universe, going through the same thing? Should I believe in the multiverse theory, for I cannot prove that we are not alone. Should I believe there is a reason why just because I feel the skies talking to me every night? Should I believe someone's message is reaching me through the beams of the moon every night? My skin soaks in the possibility like a flower blooming, drawn to the light. Do you ever think of a time difference between one universe and the other? What if I am born here on Earth and after I die, my soul travels to another universe and relives the same story? What if... I am a piece of my own soul which is split up and placed in different universes? Is this the stuff of science fiction, or is it non-fictional, a reality waiting to be explored?
