When you think of all the things <br />that you have done, both good and bad. <br />Do you wonder which ones made you <br />live the life that you have had? <br /> <br />If you were standing naked <br />showing everyone your soul, <br />Do you think the things you've done <br />will have taken such a toll? <br /> <br />Will your soul look very lovely <br />or will it have some stains? <br />Have your choices smudged it? <br />Maybe the dirt is what remains? <br /> <br />Is there a way to wash your soul? <br />To cleanse off all the dirt? <br />To wipe away the painful things you've done... <br />erase the hurt? <br /> <br />Perhaps we should just think of this <br />with each thing that we do. <br />I wouldn't want my soul exposed with stains... <br />How about you?<br /><br />Mary Nagy<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/does-your-soul-need-cleansing/
