Sophie 

We danced together 
beside a sacred river, 
hand in hand, 
strangers.
​
I could feel the wisdom 
of years of heartache
but a life well lived
about her.

Kind, soft, open - 
She was divine. 
And she made me feel safe. 
And loved. 

I'm Sophie. Are you okay? 
She asked. She knew. 
And these were the 
only words spoken. 

We danced until 
our breath became short 
and punctuated with 
uncomfortable laughter.

A beloved yoga guru 
calls out from nearby:
Now stare into 
the eyes of the other. 

Don't look away. 

I was sweating.
I was afraid that
she could see my fear
and would be disappointed. 

But I didn't look away. 

The longer I looked 
into Sophie's eyes,
the more I began 
to see my own. 

The more I began
to see all of us;
A universe 
in the eyes of a stranger. 

Something inside me 
was ready to surrender.
An energetic shift,
A new lightness of being. 

And after this beautiful 
cosmic interference,
this meeting of souls, 
in this dance of pure love,

I never saw her again. 
But Sophie, my dear,
I will meet you in another universe 
And we will remind one another.

Again.
