Soul of My Soul

In another life..
Before this one..
Before that one…
And before those..

There we were…
On planes beyond lunar and solar systems
Beyond sound and color rhythms

There we were…
On dimensions where time is foreign
Where flesh is six heavens beneath our feet
Where hatred and bloodshed is something beyond belief

I made you a promise… that no matter how many lifetimes we’d have to give up
We would always be together… for..Ever.

So many millennia… ago
So many seasons and lifetimes… ago
We may have forgotten
But the power of a promise is eternal
As is my love, as is your love

Here we are… existing on mortal planes
Struggling to breathe as we swim through this primordial atmosphere of negative vibes
Living out turbulent lives

But through all the chaos and pain
My love does not wane
So here we are, here and now

We hold each other with decaying hands
Wanting to live forever and die no more

But one day, I will breathe no more…
my soul will depart this wretched body
And I will travel to where souls like mine go
when this life ends… and the next one begins

I will never be lost to you…
Nay, even in death,.. I am not lost
Because I swear to you
We are tethered by seven strands of kundalini

And in the darkest of dark space
My chakras will light the way
And guide me back to your beautiful face.

In life, we are immortal
In love, we are eternal
Living in the center of a smokeless flame
Existing on a higher plane
For love that never wanes

Frederick, this is a soul-wrenching poem of deep, everlasting and abiding love, bent on surviving even the universe itself....loved it!

I really feel the intense imagery in the lines below:

There we were…
On planes beyond lunar and solar systems
Beyond sound and color rhythms

There we were…
On dimensions where time is foreign
Where flesh is six heavens beneath our feet


And in the darkest of dark space
My chakras will light the way
And guide me back to your beautiful face.


I read it earlier, but didn't have time to comment...had to read again...feel the desperation and certainty that the will of the couple cannot be tethered by anything or anyone...pretty good going, I say.

Totally was immersed in the opening line, you had me glued to this piece.

Really, I loved it, and the title was perfect.

Dear BP,

What can I say again here that would do you justce. This was amazing....straight from your abyss. Loved this. What I love also about your poetry is that it cannot be read one or twice.....you totally captivate your audience. I would love to print this and frame, with proper credit with your permission. Loved this!!
