Search Of The Soul
Search of the Soul By ~Karen Carrington~ You know life just passes by. Constantly I stop and ask myself why. “Why” is the question that swims within my soul. Why am I so deep? Caught up in gaining control. Control of my life. Control of me. I sit and I ponder on my ever sought goals. What are the reasons of why I’m not yet in control? I need to search I need to find. Why it is I’m unable to see. The thoughts on why I cannot be....Totally satisfied with what you’ve given me. Is it unhappiness, is it relief? The answers to my questions are only in grief. Denial to the fact I’m not believing in me. Blind to the fact that I’m unable to see. What it is everyone else sees. So rare, so unique. So passionate, yet so incomplete. Until I believe, that I am what I be. I fail to realize that it is what I see. I wanna stop allowing the negative that brings me down. I want to stop letting thoughts make my life go round. It’s not about “them” it’s all about me. Feeling so totally overwhelmed with all that’s going on. To be so young, yet be so strong.

“Lost Vision”
~Lost Vision By Karen Carrington~ Should I stay or should I go? The question remains and I just don’t know. It’s a never ending road no happiness nor success. Yet I feel I’m getting tired I feel as I should rest. I’m on this journey of searching for my soul what am I looking for? What are my goals? Ever felt lost in your life before? Sometimes feel as though you’re searching for more? Seems as if you’re on this straight narrow path. But how many years have passed, you do the math. Waiting and waiting for happiness to hit. I’m sitting here thinking with all my candles lit. Round and round in circles I go. When do I stop?Does anyone know? I can see if I was spinning and actually moving someplace. Yet I’m just spinning right now at a very slow pace. Anticipating you would make some kind of move. Keep me ambitious, keep me in the groove. Instead you’re stuck on stupid and your minds unable to flow. To move in that direction that’s gonna bring forth the light. Of keeping your goals flowing and teach you how not to lose sight. Remind you of the things God has blessed you with. Keeping you in tuned of things unlike a myth. Instead of searching for answers, you’re digging for gold. Not realizing Time is passing you’re starting to grow old. “I” need to keep searching for the answers to the questions of my mind. I forgot who I am... I forget who I be....but I feel it coming.....My self-worth will find me.

The Perfect Gift
The Perfect Gift by Karen Carrington The perfect gift is what you’ve given me. Your careless actions have enlighten me to see. That you’ve never been honest, never been sincere. Being with you, I’m living in fear. I’ve trusted you with my life, even got up the nerve and became your wife. But thank God Almighty he has captured my soul. Opened my eyes even made me bold. Now I’m honest to the fact that I’m not looking back. I’m taking my hurt, and getting back on track. Back to life, back to me, your precious gift has helped me to be. Not so naïve further down the road. Opening your gift has released a load. I’m free of the hurt, free of the pain. Your precious gift has allowed me to gain. Appreciation for myself, a sense of joy from my soul. Your gift has made me realize I’m worth more than gold. So I thank you my precious love for your precious gift. The one and only present you’ve ever given me. Has given me the strength to set myself free....
