Now, Can I Heal?
Wednesday, December 8, 2004
A spark begins down deep within,
A raging fire is soon to begin.
No time to think, no time to react
The fire consumes all in it's path.
Seconds have passed, the destruction is great
None could have seen what would come in the wake
Of the pressures and tasks heaped up to the skies
Jammed all together these reasons are why.
No time to think, I shove all aside,
Just shoving it all to the back of my mind
Depression will settle, consuming my soul
Will I be left wondering, or dead in some hole?
If I don't face this and take it head on
To my anger, and rage will I be a pawn
So face it I must, though the tears will then flow
I'll be crumbled and broken, with no where to go.
Lost in the night, alone in the dark
Try as I might, I can't light the spark.
The hope burns away, the fire burns bright
'Till not even ash is left in this night
Despair now deceives me, the lies ringing true.
Chained to my sorrows, who can I turn to?
Into my pillow, I cry through the night,
My frustration no longer can flee to the skies
Now that I'm Broken, beat down, torn in two,
Exhausted, tear stained, depressed and all blue,
The damn has crumbled from the weight of my tears
Leaving me Free of my anger and fears.
