Lost Souls
By WhiteKnight

Can you hear it?
Can you see it?
Can you feel it?
The cry of lost souls.

They abound everywhere seeking to be heard,
look around you.
Do you really know that soul?
Can you feel the glow?
Do you hear them weeping?
Weeping to your soul.

The many souls locked inside,
some never escape the prisons.
Prisons we have wrought.
Can we be taught?
Taught that everyone around us,
has that glow.
Has a soul.
They need to show that glow.

We often cannot let out that light,
for we fear it might not be right,
to let it shine forth,
amongst the darkness of our world.

Remember, one light.
One soul.
Cannot hold back the darkness of man.
But perhaps a hundred can.
So help your neighbor,
So he never waiver.
Use your glow to make others stronger.
Help keep away the darkness a little longer.


Can you?
Will you?
Help me show my glow?
Help me bare my soul?

White Knight,
if you are going to bare your soul this is the place to do it and you don't need help with that, I will however hold your hand while you do.  Deep and powerful poem!

White Knight,
Your soul shined brightly through this piece.  You can show your soul anytime that you need to and like to here.  We all forget sometimes that we need to share our soul a little with others. Thank you for reminding me.

Love,
Lady


Live in my world just once and you'll find yourself enraptured.

We shall all shine our light, and perhaps the world would be just a little bit brighter.  Well done WK.  *s*

On the wings of words our spirits fly, and our souls are free.

We all have a soul and every soul has a prison. Only when the soul is free will you be happy. The soul can be tought all it takes is time and the love and support of family and friends... This is great work...
