Eyes Closed, a blackness in my mind

A solace, lonely and at home

within my soul. The darkest you will find.


My thoughts begin to wander, and to roam

Alone, my fingers grasp at air

Searching for a long forgotten feeling

Grasping at a God that doesn't care


Nursing wounds, my trophy's never healing

Pride, My downfall, somehow my ascent

Rebellion fueled by hatred and betrayal

Rejecting God with anger and resent

How was I to know that I would fail?


Here I lay, broken, bloody, proud

You strike me down, yet you can't touch my soul

Words, whispered once, are now proclaimed aloud

I am beautiful, profane and I am whole


A serpent scorned won't hesitate to bite

My venom, words, whispered in each ear

Who are you to judge if I am right

I sow seeds of knowledge, not of fear


Consider this my lost and lonely lamb

Grasping at your God relentlessly

He gives his name, simply as "I am"

You "Are" as well, now grasp it you are free


To come

With

me
