Anthology poem

A heart, even in pain it lives the passion 
Day of morals become battles, yesterday gone tomorrow just begun 
We are only as strong as our success we vision 
Be of your heart the buried love carried there 
Like a cloud bring peace so arises storm crossing 
Only a mountain be move in strength it takes 
A soul of life, humanity of nature calling loud 
I search deep for the light within myself 
Blood pump fearlessly through veins 
Desires unfulfilled need now I find I want 
Is it we look for ourselves in depths of our soul 
To fulfill a need of love that already exist 
Desires emptiness, peace of mind or elusion 
Everyday life we feel, ourselves we strive 
Amongst the crowd, hide behind an image 
The living heart or mindset world 
Where is it fear rules our soul 
Eeriness of darkness we dare not 
I sat and pondered upon life's being 
What is it I have to offer 
Except that of my soul I give 
My heart, my own being of breath 
Life, what is it without heart, without love and devotion 
It's motivation to thrive, surviving even to die is to live 
Love fiery depths, jungle of its own 
A journey into the soul, shadows darkness 
Constant struggle the path lead not destruction 
But obstacles of mysteries unknown 
Being a part of my own heart's prison, I dare 
to bleed but seek oneself 
This darkness I must conquer even within this 
shield I surround 
Only the warmth of love does passion have meaning 
But thorns of life rip, leaving you bleeding 
Most inner soul being we strive to be who we are 
It's the spirit that watches the soul living among the dead 
Is it not of him that his prints be made 
Is it not of that to which he walked 
To which his prints appear to lay 
The value of inner soul, the price for life 
Chance to leave your print the obituary reads 
Or that of yourself picture paints memories 
Inner soul, like a candle consume to light the way for others
