amnesia of the soul

A beautiful piece by Audrine Max

a lifetime of accummulation
vivid memories of trepidition
sandwiched in between
blissful experiences
adding more shades
and colorful pigmentations
replaying over and over
encountering different characters
worn too many garments
learning too many lessons
but then you choose
to go on for another ride
another trip, another dive
another run for this
game of life
just one more of this-
stupendous earthly sojourn
and all those gained knowledge
must be erased
like a soup of colors
down the drain
for that is the agreement
for wanting to come back
in order to play the game
one more time
in the ticket,
it has been encrypted
amnesia of the soul
that is the one rule
no recollection
forgetting is unlearning
for this is- a reset, a restart
aren’t you happy, you are
a white blank slate
no colors, no dots
but once again free
to become
who you are.
