Where My Soul Lives
My body lives here, but my soul is absent.
My soul lives…
Where “I love you” has meaning.
Where parenthood is an honor and a privilege.
Where a house is a home.
Where the best meal is served at Grandmas’ house.
My body lives here, but my soul is absent.
My soul lives…
Where “Hello” makes a stranger a friend.
Where friendship is an action.
Where a neighborhood houses my friends.
Where a friend becomes family.
My body lives here, but my soul is absent.
My soul lives…
Where birthdays are a celebration of life.
Where flowers are the most beautiful art work.
Where honeysuckles are the sweetest candy.
Where the stars lead the way.
My body lives here, but my soul is absent.
My soul lives…
Where there is no hate.
Where honesty is the only way.
Where laughter heals the sick.
Where miracles exist.
Where dreams come true.
My body lives here, but my soul is absent.
My soul lives…
Where there are no goodbyes.
-Mysty Rayn
