There are no dreams for a broken soul that never sleeps,
though hours may seem endless as the minute hand just creeps.
There is no music playing for the feet that never dance,
no whisperers betraying all life's failures' one last chance.
Did you let loose of the silver chord that holds you in your place;
Let loose all the reasons that kept your heart part of the race?
Did your brothers, sisters banish you to weep these tears;
embracing all your worries while your eyes behold your years?
It's vanity and worthless to deny your eyes their rest;
as long as in calamity you can say you did your best.
There are dreams and often schemes for mongrels in this life,
but blessed are the hearts of gold who run from dealing strife.
Author notes
No contest, in this world, if the soul is broken then I have to say it is pure and knows it exists in a polluted world. Hugs and kisses to all who know these tears.
