She did not just enter my life,
she returned
and my soul recognised her
before my heart and mind did.
The way she triggers my nervous system,
feels like she has been doing it for lifetimes.
With time, this knot has only tightened,
unable to loosen or to cut the connection.
I bear her pain like
it is my burden to carry in this life.
All the traumas, experiences, lessons,
feel as though they were meant for me to endure.
It seems she came to collect the debts
I owe her,
I heartbreak and pain I experienced,
felt older than this lifetime itself.
Perhaps I promised her forever,
in another life,
but still lost her.
Now my soul only keeps that promise,
by loving her
even when the story is already over.
So I accept, I forgive
and I am trying to release the bond I have with her.
Maybe I met not to complete the story,
but to liberate each other from it.
