The Repeating Life

Life is a repeating cycle...

everything you have ever seen

has been seen before

everything you have felt

has been felt before

everything you have touched

has been touched before

every emotion you have had

has already been had before

 

The only difference is...

it's been done by someone else

or in a different body

during a different life

or a different time

when you were young

or in the years to come

it will repeat and has repeated

for thousands of years

 

The anger, love, passion, and even

your personal thoughts.

they are never truly yours

others have had the exact same

perhaps towards a different soul

perhaps the same soul but a different time

 

It all repeats, and it always will repeat

I look at the young, as well as the old

and it's always the same

the only difference is... there faces
