The Gentle Soul

THE GENTLE SOUL
 
   so many roads i've traveled
so many years i've roamed
 
   when will this tired gentle soul
ever find himself a home
 
  i've lived my life so peaceably
no one have i harmed
 
   where is the soul mate that i seek
to wrap in loving arms
 
  i believe that only time will tell
the reason i have to wait
 
   or maybe i am one of those
with lonliness as my fate
 
   but i'll keep on hoping and wishing
and continue with my search
 
   and be the gentle soul i am
while i still walk the earth
