Old Soul I Await Your Answer

I beseech you old soul
tell me in which way to walk
for I have lost my bearing’s
and fortitude.

I possessed strength upon
will during my youth, and
maintained precious ground
through adult challenge.

But even though I have
grown in wisdom I have lost
strength in heart to survive
this days trials and strife.

Please old soul give of your
wisdom, teach this forsaken
flesh the way through its
trials and errors.

My heart has taken possession
of me, and will not loosen its
grip. To over ride its power
is to no avail.

To bring these pangs of distress
to there end I must find the
answers.  To save myself, but
destroy others in the process this
is my dilemma.

Please old soul hear my begging
look my direction and give that
in which you are known, the
knowledge to conquer the hearts
pull, please show me your wisdom
I await your spoken word.

By,   Cerenity

Yes, I am here, but I am dead, not alive,
my body goes on, my spirit has died,
and I though alive, feel dead inside.

Wonderful Cerenity. . .

I would say that we have to listen to all advice and make our own choices. . .

Superb poem. . .
