When the Drop is the Ocean...

They say people come, people go - it is just another drop in the ocean. Oh hell! Then why is this drop an ocean in itself?

Worse still, it engulfs me and I'm drowning...

Soul Hurt

Although I have a most pressing engagement to attend to, I write this post to mark this moment in time, this moment of my life. The moment when I experienced soul hurt.

If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools...

The moment when a part of me is taken away. The moment when the soul is touched - and not in a nice way. The moment when the soul is tampered with. The moment when a part of me dies. The moment when my world comes crashing down. The moment when I stop trusting. The moment when faith betrays me. The moment which replaces my life with another's - or so it feels.

And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss....

Soul hurt. The moment when it all ends. Just like that. The End.

Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools...

Where are the tools? I don't know. I am lost. I am dead. I am no more. My world is destroyed - it just crashed. I breathe. But just about.

And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!"

It will never be the same again.
