Tangled Within

When I think of how the soul feels, to me it feels tangled and kind of a complete mess. In movies, I feel like it's often a soft glowing halo that just goes wherever, so part of it is a bit of a contradiction. Our souls (in my opinion) aren't simple; they're complex and attached to other souls (which is why I have the lines of the soul leading out of the eye and to other souls.
