The day I met my soul.

From the days bygone,

I still remember

the day, I met my soul.

I felt like I was about to die, 

when whole life events 

rewinded fast,

in front of my eyes. 

Good and the bad,

Happy and the sad.

Was I dying?

or was I entering a new life?

.

I was about to sleep,

 when I had

 a rendezvous with my soul.

In all its magnificence, 

it kept growing.

Love is the language of the soul.

My journey had begun,

with humility and love,

surrounded by the elements.

Layer by layer,

the blindfold removed.

Getting a glimpse of life,

with a bird's eye view,

from the soul's perspective, 

changed all the equations.

.

There were lessons hidden,

in the mistakes 

made unconsciously,

The blessings gathered, 

through the kindness passed on,

Good deeds of the ancestors,

that helped me transform.

.

Reborn, 

the owl in my balcony,

hooted..

A bat flew in and out,

from the open window

of the living room.

Life changed completely,

I was never the same.

.

A broken key of my laptop,

still reminds me 

of the life I lived.

The changed heart 

lives in acceptance,

of the now.
