Dark is the Well to the bottom of my heart Deeper than Joseph's cistern in Dothan Should you try to fetch a water for a drink? Where moss and mosquitos give life and live. Shepherds and Herders pass by and spit Said "its a curse and empty abyss" Yet mosquitos live and form there families And other lifeforms here they sleep. For them its "The Well of Life" Though its stinks and useless for your needs Your spit and curses can be there food Forming new life and birth. Foul and useless this Well maybe But someday a Living Water will be fetched For I heard a One Shepherd who drank and bathed in this pit He said "I will reach this abyss and pour Living Water in it"

The Well
Dark is the Well to the bottom of my heart Deeper than Joseph's cistern in Dothan Should you try to fetch a water for a drink? Where moss and mosquitos give life and live. Shepherds and Herders pass by and spit Said "its a curse and empty abyss" Yet mosquitos live and form there families And other lifeforms here they sleep. For them its "The Well of Life" Though its stinks and useless for your needs Your spit and curses can be there food Forming new life and birth. Foul and useless this Well maybe But someday a Living Water will be fetched For I heard a One Shepherd who drank and bathed in this pit He said "I will reach this abyss and pour Living Water in it"
My heart stinks!
