Wounded Soul

Wounded soul, writhing in the agony of awakening to your greatness,
Fear not!!
For you are healed,
A healed man has no idea that he is healed when he is on the operating table,
For he is asleep,
It is only when he awakes and feels the pain removed that he knows of his healing,
Wounded soul, awake to your greatness,
Awake to your beauty,
For your wounds have made you mighty!!
And with such might, the gates of darkness will not stand against you!!

Hello Woody, Ah . . . yes, the Wounded Soul theme. I certainly agree wholeheartedly with Angel's comments below. When mankind understands just how important each person's relationship is to his or her own soul, this knowledge may help each of us to bring our individual wounded souls to awaken so each of us have the chance to bask in the bright sunlight of eternity. Superb Poem!! Cheers and Best, Gary
