Hey, Can I know you

A Poem by Samuel Philip

Read carefully, you won't miss a thing

If only our eyes saw souls instead of bodies
How very different our ideas of beauty would be.

Yes you have a good body... But so does a car.
Now let us think deeply for a moment.
I want to know your embodiment of life.
The body of work that you let sculpt your passions and opinions.
Having an amazing physical vessel isn't as amazing as the mind that supports it.
Not even close... If I took your brain and put it it another body, a faceless, nameless vessel, you would still be you.
It is you who I want to know.
Brother I don't care for your jewels and your money... They are not yours.
There are plenty of men with biceps and abs.
Sister I don't care for your status and your assets because these are things easily lost and transferable, to the next with lips and hips.
Who cares for superficial beauty when your thoughts are ugly... Remember this;
You are worth the universe itself, for without you there is no I.
I am because we are, so let me meet you.
I might be talking to you across Facebook but so what, there are no Boundries, no ultimatums, just deep connections with worthy concentration.
Why are we here, what's your interpretation, I want to know from your experience.
I want to know about your spirituality and how it manifests your thoughts.
I want to know about your consciousness and your subconscious thoughts.
What is reality... I feel deeply, if you are my friend you might never know until you read it on here, but I extract my thoughts and analyse them everyday, sometimes objectively, sometimes I just see how I look at the world.
One of the things that keeps me on my toes is the concept of death and the fear of failing myself, my soul and the souls of others.
I keep thinking that one day I am not going to be here in this form.
One day these mortal vessels that have imprisoned our souls, will wither and die.
But our energies cannot be destroyed.
Then when we are gone... Were we ever really here?
If I am here... Will I ever really leave?
While you think about that... Let me meditate on it.
I'll leave you with me....
