I'll tell you a tale of two parts that were one A sentient energy. A choice to become Something more, for a moment, by splitting apart. Each piece gained 6 senses… A body… A heart. The lure of experience, of the human condition Rediscovery of self; the noblest mission But there was a catch! They must choose to forget The oneness they once knew, A gamble... And yet The choice to be human, to experience the mother Until they would once again Find one another Was filled with such promise, and freedom and choice Joy, Love and friendship… all things to rejoice Millennia had passed, through life and rebirth, a thousand incarnations, Returned to the Earth. They grew through the ages, knowing not their true goal to find what they gave up, to become again whole These fractured pieces, though complete on their own Had within them a sense that, despite how they'd grown Through epochs and lifetimes, Experiences true One journey remained, each had to pursue And then came that day, this last iteration Through whispers cosmic, And familiar vibration Two self-aware humans, A meeting by chance, Saw their reflection in a momentary glance There in that moment, they sensed the archaic Connection to source; Universal mosaic Their gaze pierced the veil of their lifetimes before To the essence within, the kin at their core Questions were answered, True purpose revealed Both part of the same soul that longed to be healed. Though physical distance would keep them apart, Each recognised, the telepathy of heart Knowledge familiar, the quest to be whole Would drive and inspire them, to unite their one Soul This lifetime perhaps? They wished it was so. Certainty elusive; For Neither could know. The true gift, however, this knowledge would yield Was awareness itself, In the great cosmic field. Aware once again of their Soul's counterpart The sacrifice made, way back at the start Magnetically drawn, as they always had been, To reunion of spirit by forces unseen. Enriched by experiences they'd gained in each round The goal was now simply; to seek what they'd found To discover the self. To meet their twin soul To make, what was fractured, Once again whole Time was irrelevant. Space mattered not. Henceforth remembering what once was forgot The gamble paid off, though the cost it was great. They would find one another, for this was their fate. And then when, at last their moment did come Imbued with new Love Their two became one -- for My Moon

Two that were one
I'll tell you a tale of two parts that were one A sentient energy. A choice to become Something more, for a moment, by splitting apart. Each piece gained 6 senses… A body… A heart.
