Bleeding Soul

by Chelsea - Gemini

a visit from my bleeding soul
one night so dark and could,
hollow eyes begging to
tell tale that had not been told.

stories of hatred
unraveled under the dark unruly eyes
telling of innocent truth 
sometimes spiced with lies.

i listened intently
to the life that had been my own
and swallowed at the thought
of any emmotion to be shown.

the visit seemed quick,
almost gone as fast it came
i understood the bleeding soul
as we were just the same.

i wanted to bandage
the cuts frome where it bled
it shuddered at the thought
and thought about what i said.

it told me to think
what would stop its' bloody wonds
and said it would tell me
on the night of many moons.

when that night came
i waited and i thought
my soul had not returned
and wondered if it had been caught.

but suddenly it appeared
through the shadows all around
i soon understood 
that the cure had been found.

it read my mind
and smiled faint and almost gone
i heard the sound of angels'
as the night turned to dawn.

Reason for writing:

    My wrists were cut andI had cuts on my wrist...and I just thought that my soul might bleed.  I know it sounds stupid, but it was true.
