Search Lights

Send these search lights in my soul... a poem about all that can be missing in life.

Searchlights

I bled so much
when my innocence died.
Everything is dark.

Send these searchlights in my soul.
Travel through the void
for an ounce of Joy.

I was numb the day
you left me cold,
and walked away without regret.

Send these searchlights in my soul.
Look in every cove
for a little bit of Love.

I broke in half
with this unrest,
leaving me shattered.

Send these searchlights in my soul.
Look beneath every crease
for something to give me Peace.

I lost all feeling
when I came to realize
the constant horror of this life.

Send these searchlights in my soul.
Look in every crevice of the unknown
for some source of Hope.

I choke on lies.
This present suffering
is so consuming.

Send these searchlights in my soul.
Look in every cave
to find my faith.
