the Void inside.
such a deep dark hole.
a bottomless pit.
who could, who has
escaped it?
the Voice inside.
such a persistent thing.
it calls me names.
it tells me lies.
it keeps on, keeps on
echoing.
the Void. the Voice.
my soul begs to be released.
released from fear, shame, guilt,
all this mad suffering.
the Void. the Voice.
how come I can’t realize
the Voice inside dictates
the Void inside?
Soul Speak.
speak deep into me.
speak healing into these
areas much too hard for me.
speak your power of wisdom,
kindness, love and truth.
speak your voice, oh soul,
speak into me.
