This Is Deep Poem by Phil Soar

All through the silence I felt mystified and lost
No sound to ease the mind or give release
And smiling through the day had left a strain on my resource
And nothing can restore my faith in god

I left some innocence when I screamed angrily at nothing
While my efforts to be trusting lost their faith
And all through this emotional strain my methods questioned me
Believing in my lasting will, has kept my life on course

I shed the disbelief when I was told that hurt would come
And delved into my past to see what messages I might have left
In places where my soul had left it’s imprint on my mind
And the anguish was no sympathetic gain

I sit in silence watching, as the world goes by
I watch nothing because it no longer has meaning
I stretch my lone reflection in a mirror of doubt
I search for answers inside grief and pain
