“It’s me, your soul” — a poem

Another day goes by, and then a week,
I'm getting weak, can hardly speak.
Can’t you hear? Do you know it's me?
I've been buried too long, I must be free.
You know I’m here, I cannot leave,
But it’s getting hard to breathe.
The dreams you had, that’s why you’re here
Can’t you hear? It’s me, I’m near.
Your sacred partner, guide inside,
But lately it feels like I have died.
Then so have you, I know it’s true.
I’m your life force, it’s me and you,
Just silenced by the daily grind,
The noise out there and in your mind.
But I’m what’s real, your love—not fear
Its me, your soul. Please. Can’t you hear?
I’ll plead and beg, it’s what I’m for,
Hear me now and don’t ignore.
I must,
I must,
I must implore.
Doesn’t it feel like we’ve been here before?
But now it’s different, a looming storm,
You’re only here once inside this form,
You will die one day, it’s true.
The question is whether I’ll shine through you.
And as long as there is life still flowing.
There’s still time, so let’s get going.
You and me together, just trust and I'll steer.
It’s me, your soul. Please...can’t you hear?
It's me, your soul. Do I make myself clear?
It’s me, your soul. Please...can’t you hear?
1 Quote From Another
American author Wayne Dyer on the call of your soul:
“Don’t die with your music still inside you. Listen to your intuitive inner voice and find what passion stirs your soul. Listen to that inner voice, and don’t get to the end of your life and say, ‘What if my whole life has been wrong?’”

1 Question For You
What would you HAVE to do with your precious time if you were given one year left to live?

Until next time, freethinkers…stay present, be pleasant, and have an amazing day!
