I recognise you now
Your face so familiar
Those eyes, that smile
The words you speak with love
Echoes in my head
Your hands explore, that tenderness
Touches on my skin

Free me from my obsession
Arrest this addiction
Turn back time
To another life, another world
Where you and I lived and loved and died
My Soul Mate

Do you remember me?
Is that a look of recognition?
Does a phrase or word awake a thought?
A distant memory of passion?

But you can no longer love me, desire me
For I am old
Your soul and body now a gift to him.

Do you believe in reincarnation?
This poem is about two lovers from a long time ago, but in this world they've missed each other.
