I Wonder. Two Poems in One Place.

Today's tomorrow,

No difference changed,

All souls remain the same.

Flashes on the wall of life,

Like lightning bugs taking flight.

The body just a jar of air,

Used up and shed,

Like nothing was ever there...

Merely Instances.

I Wonder

I wonder what it is like, to live another life, to breathe, to feel, to laugh, to cry, all in another life.

I wonder how it feels, to sit, to cry, to kneel in the dirt of another land, to lay in another's bed, to speak in another tongue.

I wonder what it is like to live another life..
