I am burning inside. My anger is a tiger, A tiger burning in the forest Of the night... dark as Aged blood on a Midnight shroud. I must accept the truth of My life. And find complete Forgiveness for those who Have done their level best To destroy it. The ones who have taken The blood from my veins And ripped out my heart. Who killed my dreams Now, once again, stillborn In my arms. I won't allow self pity to Replace that sweet child. A poison changeling To suckle my bossom And bite the ****** I'm angry. But it could be worse. I could have a Body wracked with cancer. I could have been born In a body stunted and Wizened... with a Conciousness to Understand my Predicament... A quadrepalegic. I could have been born In a sewer in Calcutta. From dawn of day Til day's begun Count your blessings One By One. One day forgiveness Will come.

Acceptance and Forgiveness
I am burning inside. My anger is a tiger, A tiger burning in the forest Of the night... dark as Aged blood on a Midnight shroud. I must accept the truth of My life. And find complete Forgiveness for those who Have done their level best To destroy it. The ones who have taken The blood from my veins And ripped out my heart. Who killed my dreams Now, once again, stillborn In my arms. I won't allow self pity to Replace that sweet child. A poison changeling To suckle my bossom And bite the ****** I'm angry. But it could be worse. I could have a Body wracked with cancer. I could have been born In a body stunted and Wizened... with a Conciousness to Understand my Predicament... A quadrepalegic. I could have been born In a sewer in Calcutta. From dawn of day Til day's begun Count your blessings One By One. One day forgiveness Will come.
I will not reveal what is behind this angst. I don't want to talk about satan and his works. I have a great and lovely God. I want to give Him the glory. He could change my current situation. Turn it on a dime. I choose to have faith that He will do that.
