Never do anything that you wouldn't want to explain to the paramedics. ~Author Unknown


I have a soul
At least think
I never looked
At myself to deep

I was afraid
Of what I’d find
If I looked
Too deep

What if I was
Petty
Or mean
Or even cold?

I was afraid
That I would see
The dark
That consumes.

It devours
My life
Eating away
At my light
What will
Happen
If it goes out?
Death?

I don’t
Want to
Die
Yet

I have
Dreams
That need
Fulfilled.

… If I have dreams
Does that mean
I have
A soul?
