Missing Soul

Image of a missing soul,.
Cold and dark, like a giant hole.
A shell of a person I once knew,
cold as ice through and through.
The night blizzard, sky shines orange,
from a huge explosion.
The fire reflects on the falling snow,
orange without any purpose
A beauty I once knew,
melted like snow in Spring..
Life withers softly now,
no sence in anything.
Image of a missing soul,
cold and dark, like a giant hole.
A shell of a person I once knew,
cold as ice through and through
Playing on the crowded beach,
empty belongings now bequeathed.
World spins round and round,
dizzy life keeps getting me down.
Wondrous beauty, the Arizona cactus,
life promise, education and practice.
Giant gears turned to rust,
land of liberty gone bust.
Image of a missing soul.
cold and dark, like a giant hole.
A shell of a person I once knew.
cold as ice through and through.
