“even the darkest of souls carry some light.” I can attest to that line throughout my own globe-trotting years. Those that have been discarded by the society, one of the shiniest lights (of soul) I have found them carrying. However, keeping your distance and still learning from them is not for everyone. Only beautiful souls like Kristian can hear, see and feel things like that, and express as well.
People often mistake
my softness for weakeness,
but tell me
wherein lies the weakness
of remaining soft in a hard world?
People tell me I am naive
for believing
even the darkest of souls
carry some light.
Have they forgotten
the devil was once an angel?
I recall a conversation
I had with my mother-
She looked
at me with eyes of confusion,
and what can only be described as love,
And said:
“You are the only child who dreams
of adopting a three-legged dog.”
To which I replied:
“It is the broken & wounded
that need the most love.”
