Clothing My Soul- Unveiled Lullaby

My spirit becomes one with my words Standing without shame - dancing together with my soul Even though my heart… Walks upon soil that bathes my feet with tears Searching for leaves to dry and clothe my soul With her silken wraps of greene' I kneel my heart upon Earth’s carpet Undressing my soul upon her soft emerald blades of grass As the silence of echoing thunder Lays her solemn song upon deafened ears Ears that no longer hear my voice of tears The fabric of my heart - silenced now by unheard cries As my intricate illusions fumble with un-promised conclusions Pulling off fragile petals of flowers that were not bequeathed Spinning cobwebs in my broken heart A heart - so carelessly forgotten You... My unveiled lullaby of sorrow
