Array ( [sid] => 106791 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Dappled Soul [time] => 2005-09-30 06:27:52 [hometext] => Another write from Steve and yes I'm still stuck in Iraq. Thank you for all your thoughts and words they give me strength. Please comment if you have time its a little on the dark side....Steve [bodytext] => Listen to my words these shadows of speech
Dark painful thoughts from with in me they breed

Dark words of death that lingers in breath
Vibrantly alive to condemn more to death

A painful stench with the smell of decay
Death to a life but yet mine still remains

Black shadows of old move over my soul
Darker my sight as my heart turns cold

For shaded my future event darker my past
I wonder around and blindly I laugh

I curse the life and the air that I breath
I question this life and the pain that it brings

I look to the Lord for its His life I blame
He gave me my life but wont give me my grave

My eyes start to swell like the weather they change
Emotions unleashed as my sight starts to gray

Over whelmed with emotions that cloud my site
Judgment is faded as I condemn my life

Why is it me, why I’m I me, who should I be
Lost not found as my life turns around

Another circle or just one more dance
Temptally teasing me to take the chance

Silence in life as I pause for a breath
Can you hear it?
Breathing….

Not your heart you here for that’s just a lie
An excuse to live but its still your life

The silence is death and the reapers deceit
You live your life but within it he creeps

Feel the beat that comes from within feel it fade and release your sin
How long left? do you want to live?
What are you waiting for? What’s at the end?

My words are not lies for they come from the soul
Giving me a purpose and I’ll give you control

These crooked thoughts that come from my soul
I’ll give you my pain to regain control

This poem was so deep. There were so many things that I loved, it was so complex and written like a true struggle you would have in your mind. The line above really struck me, I know we all question God and why we are here, I know I do. I admire your talent you have that you can search your soul through words on paper...not everyone has that ability or is brave enough to do that. Thank you for posting. TELL ME WHEN YOU POST SO I CAN COMMENT SOONER!!!! I love you.
