Scenes from "Passions of the Soul" by Tony Whitaker
Wide awake at 3 am
A darkened room
projector reeling
October's full moon lights the show:
Thoughts flow with heart in tow
Emotions arise from the minds of men
Passions chosen to suffer in
My mind feels joy from scenes inside
Our passions endured the changing tides
Numb, sensing the tick of time,
This faith I'll see you in the end
Heaven's a place I can't confess
Though the masses state its happiness
But there is no heaven
If the "i" of me is not replete
With the life of your love our canvas completes
Depicting both success and defeat
And there will still
Be you and me
