Sorrowed Souls In Limbo

By



Richard Haesche



So many sorrowed souls within my reach,

Yet none that I can ever hope to touch.

No memory will serve me as a crutch

Till endless eons pass to fill the breach.



No sentence yet have we in our confine,

Nor yet reprieving thoughts can bright our view

There, Heav’ns gates look down at brimstone’s hue

While in between we wait in calm supine.



This anxious time may be a million years

While souls in wraps are taken under tow

But here are we without a place to go

In Limbo where we wait with dried up tears.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

What is Limbo? Where is Limbo? How long does one remain there? Limbo is a place for examining your soul... a place to express your remorse... a temporary abode for those who are lost... Are you lost?

Definately interesting...though I must say that at times the prospect of limbo seems even more depressing than hell...perhaps in the afterlife time isn't measured and so, flies faster...Guess I'll have my answer someday Good Work! - Essie =)
