HAVE I SEEN YOU BEFORE


Have I seen you before

I recognize your eyes

Your smile so familiar

If I touched your hand

Would you pull away

In a life long past

Did I know you

Have I but dreamed of you

Are you a manifestation of me

Every time we meet

A touch of closeness

Passing words between us

Is there more to this

What do you see in me

Life to life

Love to love

How much do we miss

There you go again

Will you return

Many talk of soul mates

Could you be mine

Time is not distinct

Maybe in the next life

We will know more

Or perhaps we will speak tomorrow
