Old soul

How did you get so wise beyond your years?

Did you live in the stars before you came here?

Is that what made you stronger?

As if you have lived a little longer.

Your soul must have existed for eternities,

working through space and time for centuries.

There’s a deep thunder in your heart

that roars like the constellation Leo,

There’s an ardent song in your soul,

with chords higher than the cosmos.

Your aura illuminates like Saturn’s rings,

lighting every fiber of your being,

you rival the sun and its warm embrace,

with all of the stardust you encase.
