The Hollow, Wizened Soul

The hollow, wizened soul,

Still tainted with throes of youth

The hollow, empty soul,

Ringing with pain for all.

Twinging for the fallen,

Cringing for the slain,

Lamenting losses,

And worthless gain.

The wizened soul knows

The depths of despair

It knows indeed

It's been there.

The wizened soul knows

The heights of joy

It knows, indeed,

It's fallen like a young boy.

An omniscient soul

Is craved by the few

That don't know the cost

Like you and I do.
