Soul Fire

no one desires the aches and pains of aging but it is better then the alternatives

time fleetingly flees, straining the fabric of eternity
we race hands out reached desiring to touch
yet feeling the heat we retreat, fighting off mortality


there is a fire in our soul that burns us deep
burning up our youth,  while we sleep
carnage of time, written here on my face
telling of dignity and compassion, speaking life


read these lines, each  story is clear
seen by a child's innocents as creases there
not wrinkles as adults define and hide
well creased am I from the beauty of living
laughter and grief etched deeply here with love
