Darkness

Could someone take me out of the darkness? Hopelessness enraptures my mind again... I'm sitting on this bench...thinking regret I'm just....... Drifting away There's so much to learn out there Somewhere in the abyss, There must be a rope of hope... Hanging and circling rapidly The dreads of life kill me at times The stresses of life suffocate me...I hear the bell's chimes I just pass by like a stranger... Trapped in a bottomless chamber of loneliness Hopefully, I'm making some progress Could someone carry me into the light? I'm in a darksome pit...I scream I scream for help I yelp About a million times... I haven't committed that many crimes Hope shimmers in God's mind Do you mind if I ponder a bit? I must....... Walk that narrow path There's so many things to stumble upon Out there...somewhere beyond sight But, I write day and night... The things I write sometimes even gives me a fright I could get through the dreads of life You're as helpful as a trustworthy friend, God Why must my mind submit to the shadows of every day life? I should be...walking that road of recovery Do you mind if I walk that road....alone?
