Until I'm Born Again

Until I'm Born Again

A Poem by R.E.K.
"

about depression and hoping for the breakthrough, finding the healing and the joy that I've lost along the way.

"
Mother says "Don't you know all you can be?"
Father speaks like the devil's holding me
Brother calls, but I hang up the phone again
It gets hard sometimes to hear him through the line

Chorus: And I'm just trying, just trying to be right now
I'm just trying, just trying to be
And I'm trying, I'm just trying so desperately
I'm just trying right now
I'm just trying right now 
to be

Breathe in slow like I'm tasting morning light
Search for calm in the eye of the storm, hold tight
God is here " I will cover you until you're born again."
I hope He's here to teach me how to breathe

And I know I dig 
Myself deeper in 
Every time I fall
But this pain has swelled
To a burning Hell
I can't take this anymore

Chorus:

Gone are the I things 
I thought I was
My beautiful 
has turned to dust
My laundry piles seem to pile more

And I hardly leave
My bed these days
My sanity 
Has slipped away
I'm begging, crying here for its return

Little bird perches quietly in my heart
 Patiently in her nest, she waits among the dark
I am blind, But I hope that I will see one day again
Her feathers lift and guide my broken soul


Chorus: 

(Replace last lines: )

And I'm just trying ...
Until I'm born again...
to be.
