#groan
Don’t touch the soul! It is alive! It can remember a great deal! Its memories are like a hive. Don’t touch the soul! It is too leal! Don’t worm into the soul rudely Like in a thicket, breaking twigs. Just listen, how it's drawly groaning! Attend to its so silent pleas! The soul is tortured! Please, don't touch it! If you can’t love, just pass it by! Don’t touch the soul! I pray, don’t break it! The soul hurts! Don’t let it die!

Don’t touch the soul!
I am ashamed to live today! There’s too much malodorous mud! I want to create, to win, to love! But how’s it possible? The evil’s crowned! I look out the window and see the sky. I go out the yard and hear the groan. It’s up in the air, ashamedly, clumsy. It understands that the final is known. I am ashamed for this crippled truth. The fact, that seemed like a nonsense yesterday, Is now a reality where we have to be. I don't want to live here! Just noway! Noway!

I am ashamed!
She says nothing, there's just a kind of sigh, a groan -- that makes me happy.

[ She says nothing, there's ]
Art does its best to translate the groans of the soul. Though well versed, it is not art's native tongue, and even vocables are but a semblance of profound yearning, ecstasy, illumination.

Native Tongue
As I lay here on my bed and groan I don't think I can make it all alone I need a friend someone of value Hell tonight I'd even take some ****** But instead I'll just toss and turn And wish of days that I could return When one small space in time There was plenty of friends of mine But I knew then as I do now That good times fly faster than bad some how

Good Times Fly Faster
Another day Hey Another night Another morning Another journey Another face Another job Another sandwich Another missed opportunity Another chance Another frown Another light Another queue Another crowd Another beep Another station Another drink Another deep breath Another groan Another moan Another half smile Wait! Is this life? I see my kids I feel alive They are what I once was Innocent Inquisitive Energetic Full of promise Bright eyes Smiles Life bottled Keep it! Moments in time I will cherish forever. Gone but never forgotten
