Okay, God
Let’s do this
You and me
At it again
I’ve forgotten what I knew
Lost my purpose
Got caught up in my desires
I don’t want to lose myself like this
Remind me who I am
Remind me what I’m doing
Remind me how to love you
Here you are down on your knees again
Trying to find air to breathe again
And only surrender will help you now
I love you please see and believe again

Are there people
Without voices in their heads?
Monsters tormenting and
Demons taunting them?
Because I’ve lived my entire life
Fighting for my sanity
My grip on reality
Desperately trying to hear my own voice
In all of the chaos
This is just how I am
It’s how I live
And it astounds me
That anyone could be different

Last night I saw it there
Lingering beneath
The thick emotional fog
A creature, a monster
A suppressed storm
Writhing, screaming
Bruised and scarred
Full of old memories
And I was so relieved
To pull the fog back over
And bury it in the night
