Unbelievers, Reincarnation, Philosophy

no one knows when they’re born again
not even the priest who declares.
reparation may be in vain
and all that retribution shares.

some may know when they’re born again
as the soul returns, life anew
as man, as child, as old as time
in a new body, a new name
that does not dare affect the soul.
maybe no one is born again.
