Body And Soul

Physical Abuse,
Cuts And Burns,
Outnumbered,
Out Fought,
Holding You Down,
To Take It In Turns..

But Your Shell Is Like Iron,
Reanimates,
Rejuvenates,
It Can Take All They’ve Got,
Stand Tall,
Stay Strong,
Weather They Like It Or Not..

But Your Mind And Your Soul,
The Torment Cannot Heal,
The Pain,
And The Torture,
Of Your Ordeal..
It’s With You For Life,
Eats Away In Your Head,
In The Mornings,
At Work,
Laying Awake In Your Bed..

A Voice,
Talking..
Non Stop Night And Day..
I’d Give Anything Right Now,
For You To Take It Away..
Or Just Five Minutes,
To Ease My Pain,
To Help Me Retrieve,
My Sanity Again..
