To the Hurting Soul: A Ramble

To the Hurting Soul

I know you feel down and your tears are flowing
Your heart’s turn to lead along with your head
The world’s turned over and everything’s backwards
Your path’s gone dark while the stars ran away
And all the while you're wishin'
Someone would turn on the sun

For in crash your walls
And ‘round stand the neighbors
All pointin’ and laughin’
And hootin’ and hollerin’
Thinkin’ its funny this pain you’re feelin’
All the while your heart withers
Your soul dies and hope runs away
To a point where you feel like fading,
Crawling in a hole and dying there
And it makes you wonder
Would anyone care?

Well I tell you my friend, I would care
Though I can’t speak for the 6 billion others out there
Let it be known one soul will be crying
So hold onto life while we still posses it
For hope’s always there
You just have to find it
Around the next bend
Or over the hill
I promise my friend, I promise it’s there
But until you find it
Just know that I care
