Catching Souls


No matter how far I would chase you

I would never catch your soul

Stuck so deep

I would have cried, realizing no hope 

 

It's like catching fireflies 

Especially on lightless nights 

My strength so soft

Makes me stop to focus 

 

He's still alive 

In my heart, soul. and mind

That's all that matters 

I feel and know 

We live forever 

In each other's souls
