A Side-Stepped Temptation

A Poem: In the Darkest Moments

Deep calls to deep
But what happens when your depth is gone?

Ideal and young with a hard life
But a strong hope for the future

It doesn’t come…what then?
A dried up prune of a being at the age of 30
Nothing left but a big sigh

Where did the passion go?
How long can a man’s heart be mangled before it dies?
A third of his life seems about right to me.

CPR! This man is flatlining!
If only he had the will to live…then maybe he would fight
But how long can you fight for a non-materialized life?

The blood still courses through the veins
The heart beats on
But the soul, the soul is gone.
