There are roads your feet recognize, even if your mind has erased them.
It\u2019s not d\u00e9j\u00e0 vu<\/em>. It\u2019s your soul whispering: \u201cYou came back for a reason.\u201d <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is not a dream.
Or maybe it is\u2026
It\u2019s the story of a road that knew me before I knew myself,
and of the moment when time stopped being a line and became an echo.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are paths you don\u2019t remember walking,
and yet your feet step on them with a familiarity that unsettles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At some point along the way, time stopped behaving like a line
and began to fold like damp paper.
Everything becomes simultaneous:
the first time I died,
the last time I said goodbye,
eternity trapped in a blink of dust on the windshield.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I saw a stone structure, a cross crowning the silence.
I didn\u2019t pray. It wasn\u2019t necessary.
The stone recognized me.
It knew I had been there before, with another name, another voice.
Perhaps in another body.
Perhaps as a shadow.
Or as wind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Virgin behind the glass watched me with the tenderness reserved for repeat visitors.
The image did not bless, it remembered.
As if to say:
\u201cYou have fled from here in another life.
This time, stay a little longer.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Gremlin and the motorcycle rested under a light that wasn\u2019t from the sun, but from memory.
I sat at the edge of the road the way ghosts sit:
weightless, yet dense with history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And for an instant I understood that the soul does not travel with maps or clocks:
it drags itself toward the moments where something burned \u2014love, fear, or joy\u2014
and returns there,
not out of nostalgia for the place,
but because of time\u2019s wound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I remembered then that souls don\u2019t return as punishment,
but because of invisible agreements.
Because they left a word unfinished,
a farewell unclosed,
a promise still trembling on the line of the horizon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All of this happened at an undefined point between sea and sky,
between what I was and what I will be.
No one saw it.
No one documented it.
But I lived it.
Or maybe I\u2019m dreaming it from another incarnation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What matters is not whether it\u2019s real.
What matters is that, for a few minutes,
time stopped to say hello.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And though the road went on,
I stayed there a little while,
in that fold of time,
like someone who leaves a part of themselves behind so as not to forget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
