Soul Seasoning - by Invictus

54

By I*n*v*i*c*t*u*s

A new dawn awaits...

A Season of the SOUL



I see you on the wheel

That time never seems to heal

Though love surrounds you everyday

.

At times you feel rotten

That love has forgotten

That you were a diamond in your days.


Love has it’s cost

For those whom have lost

In selfish and awful ways


The pain is for real

Yet it shall heal

For each day lifts a bit of haze


It has not been long

For the suffering song

To be realized from your

gaze.


It takes time to mend

And to comprehend

The choices that you once made


You may call me a liar

Yet my life is on fire

Light has affirmed my ways.


Though I lived in your throws one day.

It takes time to acquire

To reclaim an know what is desired


Through the whims of some lonesome days

Remove wounds that burn like fire

To once again feel right in your days

.

It is so true

If you focus on You

And the life you brought and aspire

Affirming the strength of the higher

Of brighter days


In time your feeling of rot

Will so be sought

Through your will of glum some days


The feelings are for real

Yet it takes quite some time to heal

The choices that were once made


Though, low and behold your

Life shall shimmer

As the diamond, not the winner


For life would be a loss

If never tempted the cost

The extra mile, what would be the loss?


Of something you thought

Could be true

Yet the higher cost

To lose a family for a child.



I honour you

For the pain you’re going through

My choice originally yours

Yet my life was to the core


Of breath


Being strangled at bay

My sons life has a price

Not to sacrifice


Though his father would love for me to disappear.

Today is won, and this dread is no longer near

.Maximus is his name, to rattle of the vein

Of the father that wanted him dead


A journey of all cost, to keep my true love from being lost

Gave my son a life, now free of dread

He is brilliant in every way, of countless endless days

Never be a wince of haze.


My days always shimmer

Fore he is always the winner

Should I fall in a shallow place


You too will have your season

Every day for a reason

For you can not freigh from higher

With a child’s blaze of fire


That which developed from your core

It's alright to be

With so much uncertainty

With all that has been ripped from your core


Yet a day will desire from you to claim the fire

Of a new dream from within

Someday you too shall bare


The light

Glimmer

Smile


That has lived

All the while

And also you will know

The friends you behold

As your soul is always a bright fire.


The past is lifting

At the past you will see

Only memories of beauty

Of why you placed thee


Time is the wheel

Please don't get caught as the heel

Of life in dumb slum days


I believe you're for real

In the aching wheel of a time, I saw

Too many days


Your talent abounds

Can you not see and feel the omniscient bounds

Of the beauty in your life so real?


Astonishing, I see a man who was meant to be

Who placed his heart on the wheel

Yet time has told, that was old


Yet.... your soul is behind the wheel

Only you hold

The beauty that could be told

At the end of this heart breaking shpeel

AIDY- Thank you very much for your words. This poem was sad for me to write as well. It reminded me of a time I felt shattered and life would never be beautiful again. I am grateful that it found it's life on paper and no longer resides within. Though in writing it for a friend, it was also very healing for me.

DREAM ON ~ Hi, this poem took about 2-3 hours total. You know some thoughts just make the fingers type in the monent! It is a bit deep, yet was written more for a friend to show I had some understanding of their pain and that things would get better in time! Thanks for reading and taking an interest! :)

nt was a great help to me, whoever it was for, believing it was for someone close was inspiring. Do you think the wife ever read them?
