SOUL'S CRY

Soul's Cry My soul is crying out, A silent, desperate plea. A cry for understanding, For peace and harmony. The world is full of turmoil, A sea of sorrow and pain. My soul is crying out, A call for change again. I see the suffering, The turmoil and despair. My soul is crying out, For someone to care. The pain is all around me, It's suffocating, so. My soul is crying out, It's yearning to know. To know the reason, The purpose, the plan. My soul is crying out, Can someone understand? The world is full of beauty, Of love and of light. My soul is crying out, For the darkness to fight. To fight for what's right, To stand up and be strong. My soul is crying out, With a hopeful, bold song. The song fades, As a shadow looms near. The darkness falls, And my soul's cry is gone. I feel the emptiness, The void that has been left. My soul is no longer singing, The silence is deafening. But in my heart, I know the truth remains. My soul's cry may be gone, But it's left its mark, unchanged. The mark of hope and faith, The mark of love and light. These marks are in my heart, And they will never die. Though my soul's cry is silenced now, Its legacy will last. The echo of its song, Resounds in my heart, at last. My soul may be quiet, But its song will always be. A song of strength and courage, A song of you and me. ©® Coker Favour A.
