And then it happened
The time came
For a soft exhale
Deep within eternal silence
A gentle recall, a turning around
And the soul stirred
Unfolding and awakening
Out of its long journey
Carrying the fragile and precious
From all it had learned
After eons of soul-searching
Beginning to remember
To breathe life back towards its own body
Again
And the heart knew
And recognised the subtle change
The new flow of direction
And held its beat to listen
For the loved voice
That it waited for
That it longed for
For the time had come
For its own soul
To turn towards itself
To come home
