Look into the eyes Of the man with no soul Used up and abandoned Forced to pay the toll For the treachery of life And the love that you stole Left with only his thoughts Spinning out of control Torture and agony Is all that he’ll feel Comfort and kindness They seem so unreal The walls he has built Are of concrete and steel No longer possessing A heart to conceal I know not joy I have no fun I feel no warmth I see no sun Alone I stand Alone I run I simply am The soulless one What was it that brought him To such a sad state The choices he’s made Or maddening fate Will someone now help him Perhaps it’s too late For he’s lost all his patience No more will he wait Along this dark path Alone he will be With no one to guide him Nor light he can see Battered and broken By life’s misery This is the man Which dwells within me I know not joy I have no fun I feel no warmth I see no sun Alone I stand Alone I run I simply am The soulless one G. A. Webb 11-29-10 Regret not that which you have done, |

Thank you both, I'm glad you liked this piece. These thoughts popped into my head one day at lunch so I had to write them down. I don't write nearly as much as I used to when I first joined PIP Talk way back when, so it feels good to do it again. Thanks again. ![]() Regret not that which you have done, Rather that which you haven't |
