The children of my soul

My poems
are the children of my soul
their words
the offspring of my heart
conceived within my sorrow
born of the suffring
my life has oft times been
they struggle
and they strain
in the hope that they can contain
just a fragment
of the love and compassion
they were written with.
Confused in what they offer
only longing to retain
a place in the mind of the reader
a space of safety
on the pages of our destruction
a final effort
our humanity to regain.

We all need the comfort of something. It is that one thing in life that keeps us going. I believe that your poems are what keeps you going. For you try so hard and all you want in return is the worthiness of ones sight.
