Images of the lost.

Where was it that I found the soul

The soul that was brave and yearned to seek

The soul brave enough to leap

The soul that had not a care, because it glowed

The soul that flew far beyond any cloud

The soul that made me stronger as a human being

The soul that turned me from a boy to a man

It had not reached its peak until I shed a tear

For it was then my humanity came near

You are flesh and blood and bleed is what I do

I am a man, who’s journey sometimes feels through

Have I forgotten the lessons of the past

Have they sifted through my mind because I did not want them to last?

Where on earth has this path taken me

I am just and giving and loving while I’m here

Must this path always have me shed a tear?

When will clouds during this journey of mine disappear

When will you grant me countless smiles generated from a single tear

Have I do so wrong that sadness is all I can feel?

Have I not done enough right to avert your angry steel?

Far reaching is your inflicted pain,

And yet, here I remain

I call upon those beyond me to reach out

I call upon you to cast away my doubt

I call upon you as the man and human who bleeds

I have not called upon you to fulfill my needs

So when I close my eyes tonight let me see my dreams,

When I close my eyes tonight, reveal to me all that it seems
