These thoughts can't seem to touch the end
This dark night lasts forever
I don't know where to turn for help
This heart is too worn out to cry
These wounds have made me weak
Can't find the strength to climb the steeper paths
Clouds remain that my cries cannot erase
I'm left here limp, in the arms of grace
I'm searching for the peace You promised
Looking for an end to this war
Rising deep within my soul
I'm told You whisper words of peace
Words that calm the raging storm
I feel myself falling ever deeper inside
Unable to hear even my own cries
You promised to be near
But I'm surrounded by darkness so thick
Nothing left to hold on to
I can barely breathe
I'm stretching, but You're just out of reach
Beautiful Love
You changed my world
But what You see, I cannot
You broke down walls
A lifetime was spent building
Seeing what was within me
You chose to remain
You did not look away
Found something worth loving
You loved me through the pain
As my hand reaches out in desperation
You reach for me in Love
You're more than I can take
You won't let me go
You can't
We're all looking for answers. We desperately want to understand. We want to know who we are. But sometimes, we want to know so badly, that we'll believe just about anything. It's a terrible tragedy.
Holding onto nothing
Clinging to a lost hope
Wanting to remember
Trying to forget
Longing for the light to come
Hiding in the darkness
Praying to be rescued
Too afraid to reach out for help
Promises once clearly heard
Lose their voice amidst the cries.
How far will you go?
"...I looked for him but did not find him.
I called him but he did not answer."
Song of Solomon 5:6
Torn apart from the inside
Piece by piece
You lost your strength
A part of you disappeared
I was there.
Your heart is heavy
Your steps are weary
The pain becomes too much
I've been there.
The darkness wraps around you
The lies of the enemy have left you blind
I am still here.
The demons that you wrestle
Have brought you to your knees
But it's there that you will find me
I'll help you rise again.
I pray that you will hear my truth
As I speak it over you, my beloved.
Won't you let me love you?
Let me be your strength
Let me break your silence
Let me cast my light on all your hidden places
I will take your shame
I will bear your burden
You will never be alone
Won't you let me love you?
"I would rather feel this pain, all too familiar, than be broken by a love that I don't understand."
She self destructs, but you wouldn't know it.
She does it to know that she has control over something.
She does it because it's all she knows.
Etched on her arm, a constant reminder.
Only a small reflection of the pain she feels inside.
She's wants more than anything, someone to see.
Someone to see beyond her facade
Someone to see the pain she hides
When every day she says "I'm fine."
She needs someone to come beside her
To take away the razor blade
And instead of writing all her wrongs
She needs someone to write Love
Someone to write Love on her arms.
But, she hides it so well.
You'd never know it was her...
