»The soul«

by Laura Arman

It's the soul that seeks,
words unspoken,
floating angels,
from ships broken.
Happy endings,
captured and forgotten,
anguish forseen
and left to go rotten.
The soul that's alone,
not tied or marred,
desolate but not empty,
left under a pile of scars.
Tugging on strings,
to contend the war,
that lets us breath,
that lets us breath,
that lets us BREATH,
on the ocean floor.
It cannot be saved,
by grace or fortune,
no spirit can master,
the malaise of torture.
In a Will, it carries on,
with nowhere left to go,
except the twists and turns,
of a road we no longer know.
