Read my Soul

My face is not who I am

My mind is not who I am 

My body is not who I am 

Who am I? 

I am my soul 

I am my connection with the Beloved 

I am my heart 

Flesh and bones don't define my essence

Flesh and bones 

are just a mask 

skin and muscle

keep my body intact 

But my Soul? 

my Soul is more than that 

My Soul is my life

My heart beats because of it

I am not alive because my heart is beating 

I am alive because my soul has feelings 

So take a closer look,

See beyond this flesh casing.

Its not the cover that matters 

but the words Inside a Book.
