Soulless World
I am lost
In a world of grief
Pain and misery,
No one can find one
Blue soul among all
The gray and soulless.
A bright blue spark
Flashes from afar,
Run away or run towards?
Running away means
More of this selfish drivel,
Till the end
Of one’s existence.
As I run, I hope for
Recognition in the
Rain of the soulless world,
For love and happiness
In a world
Of hate, death, and decay.
As I run, a realization hits,
I stop and hesitate,
What if this is all there is
To life and existence?
What would the point be,
Especially if it is a loss
Of one so precious to
This dark existence?
Knowing will occur,
Eventually,
So will death for everyone.
Whether we die today,
Tomorrow, or next week,
In a car, a plane or a train,
Or even in our sleep, at home,
Killed by our inhibition.
