In This Time

In This Time

A Poem by Mike

When I go my way I take the long way around,
I take the long way around to find my own way as I should,
Holding your gaze and I breath again,
Fearing most what I have found,


In this time I find my past scorched and burnt,
In this time when things weren't asked,
They hear me now and evade silence,
Like oats on the water just soaking up everything,


Its like living with a ghost but the ghost is me,
I can't get out... the world is a prison,
I set my soul free to find the ghost I used to be,
I pray that time has not run out yet,


Home is here and now and my faith is strong,
Even though it feels like like a prison sometimes... I am in faith,
I won't fade away I serve a higher power,
My destiny is already written I merely have to page through the book myself,


When the night comes and the land is dark,
When the moon lights it all up as if the only light around,
I won't be afraid and lonely because you stand by me,
The sky I look upon won't crumble and fall,

In this time I am me with all my scars and tears,
In this time I have bled and sacrificed parts of me,
In this time I won't give up I will endure the testimony,
In this time I have given more than I could but I still stand here,


I won't shed a tear no more because you stand by me,
I won't be discarded any longer because you are there,
I fight this fight inside each and everyday in light of you,
I won't quit ever ... I am better than this
