Lost
Soul
By Ian Stevens
No
one notices
No
one cares
No
one knows that I'm even there
An
empty shadow
A
lonely shell
A
lost soul in neither heaven nor hell
If
you look into my eyes, all you'll see
is
the dark abyss that consumes me.
My
tears fall into the river of time
as
I wonder if salvation will ever be mine.
In
the rain
In
the snow
No
one will ever know
Where
I lay
Where
I cry
Where
I wither away and die
The
flame of hope, about to go out,
is
finally gone by the winds of doubt;
the
cold ashes that are left behind
mix
with the barren snow so cruel and unkind.
All
these storms
That
I find
Are
raging all throughout my mind
As
icy hate
And
cold love meet
Covering
everything in sleet
Numbing
and killing the life inside,
freezing
over faith from all the lies.
The
white, icy wasteland where nothing can grow
is
the emptiness inside, reaped and sown.
For
a lost soul like me
happiness
is impossible to find
because
the only friend is darkness divine;
I'm
wanting to waste away in the sands of time
where
peace shall finally be mine.....
