Multi colored
My soul squalid
Blushing black
A desperate chameleon under attack
No breath gives me air
Soul searching I try myself repair
Sins I must face
Be prepared to meet disgrace
Soul searching in my own body
I find a nobody

A place deep inside
I know somewhere peace does reside
I close my eyes and try in my skin to confide
Goose bumps and straight hair
Naked inside all i will bare

Gentle lies bona fide
The journey cannot hide
But of the destination I am petrified

Tension
Tension and soul searching
Brings my mind to strong attention
Reaching
Reaching deep into places I fear
Not for glory but to bring love to me near
I cannot escape
Deep uncharted landscape
Buried treasure must surface
A golden soul searching purpose
A pirate I brave rough seas
Wind that needs strong keys
Knowing
To myself the reward I am owing
Folded stars await
Envelopes I have sat on that blind my fate
Through bone and heart I grate
Not stopping hot for blood
Soon an oasis will my lips flood

Soul searching
Myself learning and teaching
My soul the master
My conscience the student
Searching to find balance
Giving myself pretty time allowance
Looking out for myself so I won't become redundant
I treasure the moment
When the master becomes the student
Until the bell rings again
Until inside me becomes another stain
