Little Soul

 

 

Like the rain, tears fall. They splash on the ground

Each one that drops hears my soul’s little sound

A pale little cry that comes from inside

This little light that gets smaller, each time nearly dies

I’m sorry small child; I don’t want to make you sad

You’re losing your glow; I didn’t mean to be bad

Tiny, tiny soul, please don’t weep when I hurt

My tears cry for both of us, don’t be an angel in the dirt.

Don’t look that way soul, you make me despair

Please don’t think that I live without care

The physical pain, it’s only the surface

It embraces me, just like the serpent.

Oh weary soul, don’t close your eyes

Don’t leave me alone to cope with the lies.

Little soul little soul, why are you so still?

I thought you’d recover, from each daily pill

My soul please help me, my tears have dried

Why won’t they come, when it’s raining outside

Little soul you’re so quiet, why don’t you reply?

You’ve left me like the others, all alone to die.
