Debate

The soul said – let me go
And body said – let me try

The soul said – I want to be free
The body said – don’t flee

The soul said – Let’s live
The body said – you have more to give

The soul said – I am tired
The body said – you have been wired

The soul said – I need some rest
The body said – You have to give the test

The soul said – I dream big
The body said – You can’t turn into ibis

The soul said – why do you hate me?
The body said – I love you too

The soul said – goodbye
The body said – that’s the best lullaby!!

    Soul had no tired, it was not need rest. It was not seen dream because of it also eternal. Some confusion is this poem.. u see.
    Thanks.

  2. Diff perspective.. soul can be tired, that’s why want to leave one body n move to another or roam around, upto it. Body is just a medium.
