_The Ancient Companion_*
<p><br/></p><p>(The blue 💙 heart poet)</p><p><br/></p><p> *_The Ancient Companion_* </p><p><br/></p><p>My soul whispered to me,</p><p>“I’ve been here before.”</p><p>Confused, baffled,</p><p>I asked,</p><p>“How come? It’s only my first time here.”</p><p><br/></p><p>It smiled and said,</p><p>“I dwelled in a world called</p><p>the Realm of Souls.</p><p>I have known, and lived,</p><p>many things long before you were formed.”</p><p><br/></p><p>As I stepped into the room,</p><p>my presence barely settled,</p><p>you sensed the familiar echo</p><p>that filled its stillness,</p><p>and said,</p><p>“We wandered through the corners of this place,</p><p>though you do not remember,</p><p>but I do.</p><p>It is here you met the one</p><p>formed from your rib.”</p><p><br/></p><p>It reminded me that it is ancient,</p><p>and my mind is new.</p><p>It testified that my path is written,</p><p>and nothing I walk into is random.</p><p><br/></p><p>So, dear soul,</p><p>for choosing this vessel,</p><p>my body,</p><p>I thank you.</p><p>For trusting me to walk the journey</p><p>you began long before I drew my first breath.</p><p>For carrying memories I do not yet understand,</p><p>and wisdom I have not yet grown into.</p><p><br/></p><p>Stay with me.</p><p>Guide me.</p><p>Unfold yourself to me in moments</p><p>both quiet and trembling.</p><p>And when I forget who I am,</p><p>remind me of who we have always been,</p><p>a story older than time,</p><p>wandering toward the light</p><p>once more.</p>
