My Soul

it's the deepest core of my essence, an unknown journey taken each step I embrace- it's the weary lines upon my face- every cell of my being is barren whole... it's the sound of my aching soul. it's magic beyond comprehension, solitude seen when I close my weakened eyes- it's a lamp, a disguise- sincerity is finally filling me whole... it's the touch of my longing soul. it's a rubber stamped impression, a mark left upon each parchment I quill by hand- it's the part of me no one understands- the core of my abdomen taking control... it's the taste of my craving soul. my soul is fierce, my soul is deep- my soul can pierce, my soul can reap. this soul needs many things that fulfill- such as my parchment and my starving quill.

it surely would be nice to find more humans as in touch with their soul as you are, for the soul is a fire that always burns to give light to the shadows that inhabit life...well-done, poet
