you took my soul in arkansas but i ran with my spirit to phoenix you took the challenge to the chase and followed me there i fought it out with you for three years never indicatiing that my soul was gone and you believed you owned me spirit and all..... i wrapped my spirit tenderly and tiptoed out to arkansas in my old wreck of a car......had three flats a long the way....but made it anyway i thought i had escaped you when i went to the breakfast bar and there you sat all puffed up and laughing really loud and saying....did you really think i couldn't beat that old car? i couldn't even eat i ran away very fast when i realized that i had my soul back so no matter where you follow me, no matter what you say or swagger, or talk, you finally lost all the way the cost is almost unbearable if i look at all the time at once. i never look back because i can't make it go away. i just go on and am happy for each day that goes by altho there are sometimes i cannot sleep as for watching out that something bad will happen..........and then with a fresh afternoon nap i realize i have nothing to fear anymore then.......i plaster a big smile on my face and keep my soul warm. by janetta harrington
