The Soul Knows

Fine pearl that you are

Don’t get stomped on

Anymore

You are love

Itself

A valuable heart

Just beginning a

Clean

Restart

Stay out of the mud

The swine don’t care

They won’t notice you are even

There

Don’t be needy

Or full of pity

That is what they want

You are worthy

Acceptable

Considerate

A fine piece of

Jewelry

Stop giving away your

Love

He tells us this from above

The ungracious will never

Understand

They are heartless

Disrespectful

Unkind

Swine

Find in you

The true

Affirming

Necessary

Love of you

Applaud it

Hold it

Be silent

Pearl

The glory will

Definitely

Find you.
