Do I take a look deep in to my
soul, do I swim the waters that
shimmer, with each movement
I see ripples of my life unfold.

Will I dive in to the depths
how far would I go, or stay at
the edge, glancing at how
my life was and is to unfold.

I dive in feeling the waters light
wash over me, as I delve deeper
the shadows I see, as in every soul
there is light but also darkness in
thee.

I go deeper seeing the moments
that have effected me, moments
of hope that shimmer on the wall,
but scars from the errors in my life
and what has happened from me,
darkened scars not yet healed.

I wish to go further, but the soul,
pushes back, as if not wanting to see
what is beyond me, it the life before
the one that I'm in, always a locked
door maybe many before that are locked
as they should not be seen in.

My soul I have seen in, swam in deep,
would I tell others to delve in deep,
maybe but I warn you there are things
buried deep you may not want to see.
