Cold Hard Steel

Cold Hard Steel My mouth wide open, gasping for breath, splashing, gurgling Hopelessly going nowhere, treading, losing the fight I can’t hear the clanking or yelling anymore, today is the day I have succumbed to his cruelness, numb, no thoughts, no feelings just sinking, floating, slowly being dragged down below His lack of love and affection has surrounded me like a cold hard steel chain bound around me. The black oval links is evidence that evil is not part of the circle of life I’m drowning. He’s not listening. Why won’t he help me? Doesn’t he care? How did I let it go this far? A light from above, an angel reaches out a hand, follow me Bursting through the crashing waves I rise above the depth of darkness To find that God will always love me All my tears have faded. Joyful smiles every day. He is still part of my life but the chain has been broken, I have been set free because God will always love me. Even on the days when he doesn’t show me love and kindness I know I am not alone in this big old house. I kneel and take it to the throne. And tell God about my day.
