I Loved You Before... Poem by Ray Lucero

Beloved;
I loved you before...
In a place where souls await incarnation
A place where time does not exist
Carefree we sang, danced and played

Yearning physicality we chose a human body;
To experience 'The breath of life'
Memories of Heaven did fade away...
Alas...We knew not;
Life brings joy as well as sorrow,
Life brings pleasure as well as suffering
The Infinite gives way to a finite existence
How strange...these polarities!

Came one day, a chance encounter;
'Blind date' was the introduction

Two eyes searched the unfamiliar
Two minds could not find reason
yet;
Two hearts fell in love instantly
Two souls sang, danced and played again
