Soul Journeys

Soul Journeys My dreams as a young girl, of a man, A lover who gently strokes my soft skin, A great longing from my past for the future, Sometimes so overwhelming with the sadness of loss. My life journey and destiny already in place, As I search once again in this new lifetime. We came together again at long last. The strong connection from our past, Our spirits strangely intertwined. Perhaps another time, another century. Life choices made in our separate lives Eventually leading us down the same path. After awhile, I see you struggling With demons you’ve brought from lives apart. That soul is not yours, not the lover I knew So long ago in that other life. You have a history you cannot explain, Destroying the happiness we again had gained. What happened, I question, where have you been? In those lives so long ago? My soulmate, my lover, come to my arms. I will push out those demons which hang over you. We can’t wait another lifetime for this true love. But the demons overpower the man I once knew And I’m left alone once again, As my love slips away. Perhaps in the next life, we will soar once again, Searching....... Never satisfied until we reconnect. Only we will know when that day comes, Life choices with others never quite right. What is the lesson for this time in my life? I ask..... As I coast in today’s space and time.
