and as the rope begins to fray, and all of my ends are giving away
to the push and the pull and the strain.
with all of this commotion, emotions I scream in vain.
God, its overwhelming. my brain pounds until the calmness of your presence comes over me and envelops the ever present darkness that’s been pressing me, stressing me.
Its in my veins, what controls my soul is reaching out like a rose in a barren hole, no sunlight and rain to grow. I feel like its my time to let go...
and then all I see suddenly is your hand, outstretched and I think I can
take it, I’ll make it, don’t think this time around that i’ll break it
But wait, i must be mistaken, I swore all that I was was foresaken. Im drowning to find the light in my tunnel, broken sight.
I'm dizzy, please keep guiding me through the night.
When my feet are giving out and my legs can no longer move. This chip on my shoulder, now a boulder -has grown too heavy. Daily praying that you always see, whatever light you see in me.
Vivid color, no blacks and grays , cuz your the Van Gogh who paints my days with liquid life and vibrant color, again I'm falling under
your spell. Then I wonder how long until your
gone.
