What Can I See?

I can see happiness in the humming of the bees
I can see joy in the dances of the trees
I can see Moses walking between two seas
I can see love bending on its delicate knees
I can see hope drifting by an evil breeze
I can see death sick with a fatal disease
I can see doors locked with infinite keys
I can see mercy perparing itself to decease
I can see oppression that can only please
I can see droplets of rain as they freeze
I can see a feeling of ambition as it leaves
But, I can not see my soul when it once agrees..
