Once so pure,so enthusiastic, knowing no greed, foreign to hate, This soul was searching for love and it's mate. It stood alone, crossing all bridges, charging through life, No idea what was ahead, the trouble and the strife. Along life's journey, came a crushing blow, so devastating, so low, destroying all faith in itself, and in other's, Oh, how loneliness smother's. Now shattered and weary for so many years, it struggled and cried, so many tears. This soul fought to survive, it wanted to live another day did not want to be broken, but was as fragile as clay, It wanted to feel alive, to give love,feel loved, But the struggle was severe, the challenge too hard, easier to go than to stay. The road ahead was rocky and cruel, knowing no better, "Do unto other's as you wish them to do unto you", Don't argue, be quiet follow the rule. OH NO! That's not the way to revival. Abuse,destruction,holding on, giving up,cheating and lying, the way to survival. Learn the lesson, stay on track, take the drugs, there's no going back. Falling down,down,pain and emptiness, no pleasure no light, so very hard to continue the fight. There will be no apology,there will be no retribution, There will never be"so sorry", There will never be forgivness or absolution. Suffer the one who stole the soul's heart, Who stripped it and ripped it apart. Suffer the one who had no shame, The one who played the wicked game. It would be so easy now, take the coward's way out, put an end to the madness the pain and the sorrow. Go to sleep now,have peace now, no pain tomorrow. But this soul is tough, it's not going to give up, It won't let the monster win, there's no gold cup. It must be resiliant, It must fight back, Show that it's able to get out of the trap. Find some meaning, some hope and some worth, It knows that it has a special place here on earth. Can there be love now? Is there truth? Can I believe in you ? Can I believe in me? I feel so broken,so what do you see. Do you know the ugliness but see me beautiful? Do you know the damage and the shame? But see the honesty and hold no blame? The soul remember's now, see's the innocence in the children's eyes, It remember's what it was like before the fear and the lies. It can be strong, feel secure, give love, feel loved, protect and nurture. Go forward, don't look back, face the future, no longer under attack. It has come full circle from youth and innocence, troubled and torn, To maturity and wisdom, a mantle well worn. As hard as the journey has been, For all the pain and reason's unseen, Depression,regression and broken dream's, From insanity and hospitalization, To faith and realization, It has fought the fight with all it's might, It was powerless in hindsight. I am here now, throw open the gate, Please hold me now it must be fate. My lover, My partner, My soul mate. |

Welcome to Passions! You have written well of a life struggle that far too many of us have witnessed. Praise be the grand outcome that can happen if we believe and fight the good fight. hugs, Chris "Be yourself; everyone else is already taken." - Oscar Wilde |
