Well I didn't orginally intend for this one to be a DS poem...I thought I was just writing about reincarnation because it's something I'm curious about, but when I re-read it yesterday I realized it could be about Lady Hampshire when she was having Josette flashes.

I'd like to dedicate this one to Cassie, because she has written the most beautiful Quentin/Beth reincarnation story I've read online.

Reincarnation

I look at the world with
Eyes not my own,
Eyes that have seen a thousand other
Times entwining through
The present and future.

I hear voices unfamiliar
To me, yet I call to them, recognizing
Their cries for acceptance as the
Song of my soul.

I remember that which I have not seen, and
I touch what I think I have
Felt before, and the textures of my
Existence are roughly smooth beneath
My timeworn fingertips.

Disconnected from myself, I wander a path
Where times converge and I wonder:
Am I a lost soul searching for the truth or am
I someone who has yet to be?
