A Poem of the Soul

09-04-2004, 12:03
I look forward
Into the Light
Yet see with mine eyes
A sight that is not bright

None stands beside me
None stands with me
Only God Knows
That I need someone with me

Forever I believe I shall be Alone
Forever I believe None shall come
Even as I look into my future
My Soul yerns for the comfert of another

Still I continue
Still I go on
Knowing all too well
That love has gone

Never have I held a Woman
Whom has given me a feeling so complete
Looking into those eyes
I wish I could repeat

Yet still in this time
This time of my life
I see no other
That can fill the place within

My Soul yerns for another
My Spirit cries every night in sorrow
I weap constantly at how lonely I am
Yet I continue on knowing I am who I am

Oh God have Mercy on Me
Bring forth the Love I need
My Lord in Heaven, hear my plea
I need one to make me complete
I need one to complete me

The Darkness within
I see all too clear
It lurks in the shadows
It lurks deep within

Yet I know from experience
Yet I know from life
It cannot take control
For my life is my life

I look up to the Heavens
I look up to the Creator
I cry in a rage of terror
I cry in a rage of sorrow

I know too well the Darkness within
I know too well the Secrets within
Yet I continue my life
Yet I continue to live

Oh Soul deep within
Oh Darkness held tight
Keep your sanity
In this time of plight

I seek not to hate
I seek not to rage
For even as the Darkness is negative
My Soul calms the beast within

Now I know I am not that Beast
Now I know I can control
I just told you how this feels
For I am one whom endures on the field

Trust me not
Trust me true
Look into my eyes
You shall see the truth

If I lie tonight
Forgive my insight
Yet look farther into me
Then ye shall see why I cry within

The Soul of a Fighter
The Soul of a Warrior
It reaches forth to protect
It jumps forth to defend

Nay I say to thee
Nay I say to me
I cannot fight
For my plight is too high

Yet the sword can still swing
Yet the sword can still cut
I am not a fool
I have already sharpened it much

Still I know I cannot harm
Still I know I must defend
Yet this is for myself
Not for another to have pain within

I protect my right of Existance
I protect my right of Life
For in the end, my dear friend
The plight is not so terrible after all
