You may not hear me deep down inside here
Struggling in vain
It may be hard for you
To recognise my pain
When it comes out in violence
It may be hard for you
To have compassion for someone
Whose true self was so silenced
By a world that told parts of us
We had no right to exist
But can you appreciate the struggle now?
For this much I know
Sometimes deep feelings go mute
And its so hard to find the way back to
The soul and heart`s fundamental truth
When we lose trust
In the true power of what we feel
What agonies are often revealed
Hidden beneath anger
But please my friend
Don’t you know
How important it is to truly listen
To what is being said
Or not said underneath words
And to see deeply in to the heart
That had to chose to barricade itself
So completely
From suffering
I always wonder about the soul and heart’s deepest truths. For me they are so far away from the surface, and maybe never to be really dug up. I reveal a lot of myself in my poems, there’s a deep undertone of anguish and anxiety, but, I do not delve into my deepest wells, the walls are too steep to climb and they shall stay trapped below.

I sense this as well… It is not always easy or perhaps even possible to know the souls deepest truth
