No Hurt, No Soul
Another day, another loss
Alone again in the twilight hour
Yet, I find myself without the pain
without the hurt.
Has time hardened my soul
such that I can no longer hurt?
Or have I lost my soul over time
such that I cannot hurt?
A tear wets my cheek,
yet the salt does not sting.
And I stare into the flame
knowing my candle burns alone.
Friends have I now
But love I have thrown
