Soul Stealing

it starts off slow...slight breeze like a whisper like burnt toast in a crisper one black cloud in the sky but i can't see the silver lining...eclipsing the sun gettin lost in the living while i get drunk with the dead now my mind starts to bend s.o.s. now i'm sending to falsified gods...now i worship pollution in poisonous ponds by villians and vixons i'm gettin robbed now i'm the fool of the village...plundered and pillaged one more drink the devil keeps dealing... sad soul that he's stealing my heart beats hard like a wardrum banging love,life,and innocence...now from death trees hanging singing and swinging and pounding sweating fists against the wall bricks start to break as i can hear chaos make its long distance call cracked and crumbled and exposed to evil now i stagger and i stumble while the gruesome and the gory start to growl and grumble now i'm set on fire and i'm turning into flames no health no healing... sad soul that he's stealing another drink and another drug...another wind up toy turns into a twisted thug diamonds turn into dust truth turns into lies and trust turns into rust saints turn into sinners and winners they weep demons creep where angels sleep never say never...from the largest to the least on legacies of lunacy i keep leaning... sad soul that he's stealing

Such a vivid write of emotions, love lost, grabs the reader by the heart. Nice piece.

We are all vulnerable as long as we are alone or think we are alone. Where there is no love, there is no hope. These are the thoughts that came to my mind after reading your poem. Very descriptive write! Thanks for sharing and thank you for reading my poems. Caroline.
