POEMS ABOUT SADNESS > In the Sadness of My Soul
​

                                IN THE SADNESS OF MY SOUL

In the sadness of my soul
little child lays asleep
you can hear her sweet breath
you can see her wounds, so deep

she is distant, yet so close
in my soul, yet so alone
she no longer cries for help
all her tears are long gone

like an angel with no wings
like a river without  flow
little a child without a dream
like a star without a glow

once so loved and so admired
once a hero above all
wounded now, too week to talk
she lays lifeless in my soul
