Old Souls

by NielsenES

*That night I dreamt of two star-crossed lovers, hidden in the bodies of green giants. I knew them both from a time now long past For my spirit was just as wild as theirs. They silently pined for each other, In the echoes of the tears of the falls The murmur of the river taunting them Forever so close, yet a world apart. Their hands reaching out under a silver blade. That which was once tears, that which was once rain, That which was once earth, That which was once sea Now carries under her breath their longing. Oh no dear heart! Do not despair for them For they are old souls who know that loving is not possessing*
