Soul to Soul

You sit there with a tear running down
with your smile covered up with an unfriendly frown
trying to hold your head up strong
you realize life was pushing you down all along,

Looking at the puddle that lies beneath you
you have mixed feelings about what to do
wanting to leave the place you sit
you don't know if you face life, will you make it?,

Moving on your thoughts go by
closing your eyes you start to cry
a tear runs down
and in your tears you start to drown,

Fortunately your heart saves you from death
and pumps one last time taking a breathe
then all of a sudden your head lifts high
opening your mouth you breathe in with a sigh,

But this time you felt the air
and you open your eyes and for the first time you care
you stand up without knowing
that your excitement is showing,

And you walk slowly step after step
your heart pumps faster thinking that is your life's last prep
you let go of the railing and move along
and the words that you hear are the harmony of a song,

You move closer to it
not knowing if this place is where you fit
and you find it to be a sad girls song
grabbing her hand as you both become strong,

She stands up and hugs you though
for as reason you do not know
but now your eyes shine for the first time
and now too your words rhyme,

This girl seems to smile
you both sit down and stare awhile
and she speaks of words you do not know
with your life seeding and starting to grow,

She tells you to stand up and walk away
and that you with her you can not stay
for though her sadness will rub off
and adapt the deaths cough,

So you listen and walk away
and with her you wish to stay
but now you find yourself all alone
with this world that is not known,

And five year later
you pick up the paper with the feeling even greater
reading “Sad singer about to die”
and for some reason this did not make you cry,

That night someone knocks on your door
and you open not knowing what for
a man tells you to follow him
his essence still a little dim,

Next thing you know your right beside a bed
and you look down and this moment you dread
the girl you once left is about to die
and now you start to cry,

She says hello with a smile
you tell her its been a little while
she says soon you have to go
looking at her you didnt know,

She closes her eyes and says goodbye
those words she said you had to despise
you grabbed her hand and told her you will not go away
because thats the place you wish to stay.
