The Soul lives on
A chapter in the book Prosetry
Our Souls
by jusylee72
My soul was born with me
but not of me
It changed the form of my body
into a temple
One that can breath
behold beauty
live
There were times when I darkened the soul
with selfish choices
evil thoughts
earthly needs
I watched a soul
leave the body of my friend
It became an empty shell
Her body tied to machines
artificially breathing
Her eyes left first
Blue turned to grey
When I leave this world,
the body I call mine,
will stay behind
My soul will journey
seeking new knowledge
My friend and I will reunite
Our souls will entertwine
either in oblivion
or in new bodies
We will wonder
Why we are comfortable
with a stranger.
Why they know our thoughts
Our dreams
Our desires
When our souls have learned enough
and have no more need of Earth
God will take us home
