The soul is a very powerful thing….

All About Soul

She waits for me at night, she waits for me in silence
She gives me all her tenderness and takes away my pain
And so far she hasn’t run, though I swear she’s had her moments
She still believes in miracles while others cry in vain

It’s all about soul
It’s all about faith and a deeper devotion
It’s all about soul
‘Cause under the love is a stronger emotion
She’s got to be strong
‘Cause so many things getting out of control
Should drive her away
So why does she stay?
It’s all about soul

She turns to me sometimes and asks me what I’m dreaming
And I realize I must have gone a million miles away
And I ask her how she knew to reach out for me that moment
And she smiles because it’s understood there are no words to say

It’s all about soul
It’s all about knowing what someone is feeling
The woman’s got soul
The power of love and the power of healing
This life isn’t fair
It’s gonna get dark, it’s gonna get cold
You’ve got to be tough, but that ain’t enough
It’s all about soul

There are people who have lost every trace of human kindness
There are many who have fallen, there are some who still survive
She comes to me at night and she tells me her desires
And she gives me all the love I need to keep my faith alive

It’s all about soul
It’s all about joy that comes out of sorrow
It’s all about soul
Who’s standing now and who’s standing tomorrow
You’ve got to be hard
Hard as the rock in that old rock ‘n’ roll song
But that’s only part, you know in your heart
It’s all about soul

    Well, it is a powerful force from out here as well. Was checking my RB “lookie here” list, and this jumped out with the thumbnail appearing four times in a row, your post and three favs. No wonder I woke early this morning. At least I think I am awake. This is a wonderful dream times two – as if the dream is dreaming. Time to hit the shower for a cool down…

  • Tracey Mac replied

    Dick, of all the wonderful comments you have given me, this one has to be the best…....Love the ‘lookie here’ description, and isn’t that one of the greatest things RB has invented so far? I see work in that little rubics cube that would quite often slip by me if it didn’t show up there! And your dream within a dream theory is enchanting, thank you so much for such a magical comment, and hope that shower cooled you down lol!! x ;)

    Wow. Page one of 7 day… page 9 of 30 day… and day one isn’t even finished yet. Do you fully realize how many souls this has touched tracey?
    OK, so I’ve been trying to figure this out all day… as well as why I’ve been back to look so many times. Why does this so totally melt me (and obviously everyone else who’s been looking!)?

    On the surface this is an awesomely well lit, beautifully composed shot with sublime tones and oozes your classic style of illuminating just enough to give us the essence while the shadows play as much a part in pulling us into the deep mystery of your romantic soul.
    But what makes this so totally sublime is what we see in your body language and your expression towards what’s happening outside your window… its as if you’ve been sitting there for hours, completely absorbed and transfixed in something so beautifully cosmic and sublime that is pulling YOU into its own deep mystery… and as we enter your world, you sense our presence and turn to us with a look that tells a thousand tales of broken hearts and torn souls that have each been finally healed by a revelation that you dare not divulge for fear it will turn out to have been a dream.
    And I’m still sitting here in front of my monitor expecting you to turn back to this awesome display that you recognize as the reflection of your own beautiful soul… and as the day unfolds, you’ll realize that all is well.

    This is for me by far the most beautiful piece you have ever done, and it makes me happy simply that you are on my planet.
    x

  • Tracey Mac replied

    Billy, your comment is like a poetry piece all to itself. That you take the time to write such beautiful words overwhelms me…...
    How you see and feel the total depth of this is a magical thing and I’m taking your comment and wrapping it around myself like a warm soft cashmere blanket and I’m gonna keep it at the end of my bed for a long time to come. You have just about written the book for which this can be the cover. and that just shows the massive depth of your own beautiful soul…....to me.
    Thank you for the most sublime comment on my work that I have ever received…
    Lve and hugs to you baby

    Tracey, I made you a favourite because I really liked your work and this is one of your best. The lighting and technical stuff is great but I just had to stare at this and take it all in, there is a spiritual something in the face that just makes me want to look into it. It might be all about soul but it also all about you.

    This is just so good.
