Soul©

A vessel for dreams

Falling apart at the seams

Just trying to figure it out

What all of this means

Lost in my head

And drowning in dread

Never feeling alive

Until I'm lying in bed

The strife of life

Like the edge of a knife

An obstacle born

To keep me from the light

But when the curtain of night

Descends on my plight

And I find myself weary

Of the endless fight

A world that is forevermore

Free of the war that we ignore

Is conjured forth from the darkened core

Of this faceless spark that you abhor

One day that life will not exist

Any light they shared will be sorely missed

And the spark they brought, from which you sought

To covet and sell, and care for naught

Will be the hope

They use for rope

When they hang your ass

In hell you dope

Let this be a lesson

To those who would steal

The endless expression

Of the things that we feel

No matter how hard

You devils may try

You can't put a price

On the stars in my eye
