Soulful Eyes

Gentle spirit with his soul in his eyes
he walks
thru an uncaring world,yet
he cares
A world that sometimes misunderstands its own self
and causes pain unfelt by others
yet felt by some
he is most sensitive
I feel his pain, his hoy, his happiness
and innermost sadness
How hard it is to be one
who walks with the light
yet is scorned by the darkness
the world is a dark place
please don't give up
my gentle spirit with the soulful eyes
