Soul Mates

I remember drowning
in the Nile
and watching you
scoff as I sank

Historians say they don’t know
how I died
but you and I know
the truth

Two thousand years later,
you had evolved

I remember making love
to God in your flesh
after we secretly
planned our escape

Theologians wrote our love
out of history
but you and I know
the truth

Two thousand years later,
we meet again
