The Lost Soul

by Chelle Wood - Cancer

	He walks the streets of the city;
concrete and steel
wondering where he was headed
thinking back to where he has been
	He lurks in the shadow of the abyss,
suffering the pain of manhood
 	He cries out in silent agony
but no one answers
no one hears 
 	He remembers the love he once shared, 
the life he helped create 
	His path had been so sure 
	His future once so clear was now a jumbled heap
piled so high
he could not break through the barrier
	She was his heart
	His soul
	His world 
 	Why couldn't she understand that without her,
without them
there was nothing..... 
		

Reason for writing:

    For Jerry...I hope she finds her way back to you...
