Poem time: Translucent Soul

working on ideas for the next chapter
in the meantime, i have a poem for y'alls

and i don't say y'alls very often...

and...honestly, i have no idea what this poem's s'posed to be about...but...it sounds cool...i think....and it might not be done, now that i think about it....

Translucent Soul

A soul, translucent, distant, fading

Like a sheet of frosted glass

Empty, hollow, waiting, fainting

Hoping for a truth that lasts

This is it, the end, no longer

Shall this grieving last in vain

See the sun shine on tomorrow

Yet the moon glows still today

Like a thousand crystal goblets

Gleaming, hanging on the wall

Like the glass eyes of a child

Shining like a porcelain doll

Give us hope this empty morning

Void of what we need so dear

Give us faith so we shall see thee

Singing on for us to hear

Answer me a simple question:

Who shall stay and who shall go?

If the fate of these mere children

Is too grim, we need not know

But please do not refuse to tell us

What we ask, unless you find

That every word each person utters

Is the same as past gone by

Let not the past control the now

We are not them. We are ourselves

See the empty one who calls

Please help him see and find himself
