there's the light..

can you quiet this storm inside of me..
somethings ragin' terrible..

can't quite put my finger on it..
just half past midnight and i can't sleep..

come hold me;
rock me..

sing a sweet melody,
break this horrible chain that’s holding me ungrateful..

'too many good things floating my way;
what’s this that’s got me tied down...

come hold me;
come untie these binds..

make me unblind,
color me ecstatic; give me good reason

show me;
..show me color again

bring me life again,
breathe your breath into me

i need a revivin'...
hold me, unbind me, dance with me..laugh with me,

just show me color again;
show me where the light shines again...i don't wanna lose my way...i've come too far

*..deep breath* i pause,
i feel lighter

i feel a Presence;
*...sigh of relief*

...ahh, there it is...

You, Prince of Peace, Peace Maker
once again, You delivered me...

i'm feelin' whole again; i'm feeling free...
You gave her breath to feed me life

You've held me;
You've untied the binds

opened the blinds and...once again

once...
...again-

..there's the light...

there is an undeniable vulnerabilty in this piece. In reaching out, we open ourselves to healing as well as hurt. The spirituality, the admittance of a need for help, the prayer-like quality of the voice all make for a VERY personal experience when one reads this . As always, your personality ( no-holding back, utterly honest, and beautifully strong) shines through in your work.
