Believing

What if each soul was a star?
That every glimmer in the sky at night
was a new soul added to the collection
of Eternity.
What if it is true that each person born
already has a past life
and that past life has a past life?
Every smile was already smiled
every laugh, laughed
every tear shed.
What if our entire life is a dream?
That every moment, every person
doesn’t exist yet, hasn’t been met yet.
What if all this were true?
Every life had a past
and every life has already experienced
everything
and when we look to the skies for comfort
look to the stars for advice
we are really just looking into ourselves
we are really just listening to a dream.
