Soft Soul

I have a soft soul 
God, do I have a soft soul 
A soul that craves a soft touch 
A soul that craves warmth & safety 
A soul that craves love 

but 


I have a fortress for a heart 
and a maze as a mind 
Forever protecting the soul inside 
Forever keeping me from my deepest desires

I have a lonely soul 
One that my mind doesn't allow a soft touch 
in fear that it'll one day turn rough 
One that isn't allowed love 
as my heart is too tough 

I am my own worst enemy 
with a soul so protected 

It has hurt me.

Heavenly Rain

It dripped from the heavens 
Laced with gold 
But scolded by fire
It dripped onto her
Onto him 
Onto them 
And it set them on fire
Filled their veins with gold 
Their words with heat and passion 
Their tears stream gold 
And burn them while they fall
Their words heat rooms 
Their touch Midas
They turn each other gold 

The scolding gold laced drip 
Never did find me 
Though I stood in the rain 
I kept my umbrella open 
And watched it touch 
Everyone else 
A puddle pooled at my feet
I felt the warmth of it through my shoes 
Saw the gold attempt to cling to me
But it seems my shoes repelled it 
So the puddle fell downstream
Fell to another's feet 
And I watched it climb onto their shoes 
And once again
Watched another be set on fire
Watched as their veins turned from blue to gold
And I watched 
And watched 
And watched 
Never to be graced by the heavenly drop 
Forever watching it rain 
Under my umbrella
