"A living being is a soul,
be it mankind or creature,
and when the breath of life departs,
it's gone," thus says the preacher.
Then some day man will rise again.
and death will be defeated.
And souls once more will live and breathe,
the cycle now completed.
But not all of the world agrees
upon this definition.
What 'soul' may mean to other folk
is based on their cognition..
'Immortal essence' may for some
convey a deeper meaning.
It all depends on your belief,
the way your thoughts are leaning.
Some say the soul connects with God
and cannot be destroyed.
It goes on living past the grave
to Paradise deployed.
'Soul' may to some mean melody
which rocks the inner being.
With beat which makes the body move,
all inhibitions freeing.
Whatever side you choose to take,
the answer is elusive.
I'll not tell you which way I swing.
Let's say it's inconclusive.
