Thinking of the Soul

by Sandy Rochelle

 
Do not look for your soul 
In things you do not know.
Do not look for your soul in things you know.
Do not look inside yourself or out.
Do not worry about what you lose in death.
If you cannot name it in life.
We are what we cannot name.
Come with me on such a day and live,
Unnamed forever.
