DEEP DARK SOUL POET (09/1965 / Australia)

Oh dear tortured soul thou art
My heart bleeds for thee
The aching cries of your sweet heart
Are bared for all to see

'Tis tortuous to mourn a love once known but too far lost
And bleed forever, with your life and heart to be the cost

But go now, dear sweetest one
Be released from your tortured pain

For you deserve to love and know its sweetness once again

Please wake up and cleanse your heart and soul and youth once more
And live a life of love and happiness
Your hopes and dreams restored

For what a great loss you will realize
You've allowed to take your life

If at the end of your time here you wake to finally hear
The sound of your own heart screaming...do you hear...

Oh what greater loss I gave myself than she ever could
When I let my life slip away in darkness as I never knew I would

So please take this chance to let go and let God
Restore your heart and soul
with hope and a second chance at life to breathe in and behold

Goodbye my dear fear not, oh please
About what may have been
And please take this chance to live and laugh and love another again
