Where has my Spirit Gone
My spirit has disappeared from the room
Can someone assist me to find it soon
The lights gone from life, only dark days loom
I can’t stop feeling this desolate gloom.
It was when heaven came knocking the door
Though it went away I'm left insecure
Wasn't me called for, twas the one I live for
Still here by my side, but my heart's so sore.
Once I was jolly, now I'm always sad
I aim to find the spirit I once had
Because the worry is driving me mad
I must seek to find my souls launching pad.
To lift my spirit from up off the ground
To become someone ace to be around
I do realise how all this must sound
And need to jump on the merry-go- round.
I believe the soul and spirit are one
That's there from the first day that life's begun
We all have a spirit guide, it's someone
Who's there for all under the rising sun.
I pledge to listen to the spirit guide
With both my heart and my mind gaping wide
Perchance to dream I may turn back the tide
To stride o'er the earth with bountiful pride.
When sorrow comes and disturbs earthly peace
One's heart's heavy laden, there's no release
Day after day the torments never cease
By night the nightmares are on the increase.
I wish to embrace gifts blessed at one’s start
With jubilant spirit and songs in heart.
