Separation of Soul

God did not make man to die
Instead, man subjects himself to death
Through which the body becomes unable to house the soul
Which then becomes lost and alone
In a great oblivion, with only God to save it.
Yet only in this oblivion,
Where life feels lost,
Does one learn what life is,
Only can one understand
That he can only be fulfilled by God
In this world full of false fulfilments
Which the flesh seeks, only to find itself empty.
True life is brought to light through this absence of matter
Because it is only God who provides true life
Then, placed back into the body,
The soul is exposed to a glimpse of its final destiny
To stand before the Trinitarian God
Context:
The writer reflects on his near-death experience during a medical emergency where he
experienced his soul being separated from his body and placed in an everlasting void, where
the only being present was a Holy Flame of the Trinitarian God.
