Tortured soul

Addicted once in my ways

I belonged to my own universe

where you would be lost

in my life’s maze

Tuning sounds so adverse

and many words thin as dust

An inner void crept slowly in

without my knowledge

I went wild in shameless lust

Forgot all about where I’ve been

Pushed me right on edge

All senses loosing trust

And you came along

perfumed in blank faith

Approaching my tortured soul

I heard your soothing song

as you offered a hand without regret

Then my heart floundered as a ragged doll

Since then I’ve turned away from him

Even when those malicious eyes

invited me to turn back in his weary dreams

Black insidious malice meaning nothing

I could only dismiss the old lies

and go on with my life for better means

In my tortured soul, he hides

Watching my every step

But I no longer abide

I find my whole self to be at rest

As I learn of this force inside

Here, there and in between my longing fest
