Soul Searching - For Contest
SOUL SEARCHING
Closing my eyes
shaking my head
tears reluctantly flow,
My Soul weeps
behind closed shutters
dumbfounded
Seeking solace,
peace, understanding,
mercy.
The shutters
must be opened
as blindness
heals naught
“My eyes -
the windows
of my soul” **
So do we walk,
eyes open
into life
searching
the open windows
of weeping souls.
**”The eyes are the window to your soul” - Shakespeare
