My hands and knees are imprinted
Bruises only my eyes can see
Little words carried
By the strength of my imagination
The only part of me that is strong
I've outgrown my own skin
I tried it on yesterday
And detested the feel
The claw marks
Of my personal demon
Were ever present
I fell asleep holding my bible
In a cold, empty bed
Begging to have a solitary moment
Of peace my mind battles daily
I prayed not to be alone
But it was a will not mine
So I sat and read
Breaking myself apart
Seeking the beauty
God created in me
But there is so much
Black tar and bent feathers
I'll keep digging
To save my soul
Since my turn has finally come

what I wanted to write last night. I do not speak of my lord to offend anyone, I have to express my personal beliefs since this piece is for me alone.

I finally have to get to the good the Lord gave me and let go of the pain and sins I have done to myself and others. My turn to dive inside and break apart, learning to forgive myself also.

strength is in us all and I am still scared but fear should never control any of us.
