Poem
Yea though I walk through the valley of my soul I am more afraid than I have ever been Praying that I never go through this again Fighting my way out of a world of hurt Trying to avoid the mutt of depression Snapping at the hem of my skirt Trying to be more courageous than the level of fear That's built itself up over the past year Searching for happiness While I'm alone in my home Wanting to climb the mountain of righteousness But constantly being stopped By the tornado of sadness that engulfs me, Sucking out my breath Devouring my appetite Making it that much more difficult For my spirit to fight People asking "Are you alright?" As tears stream my face Day and night I want to survive, and I want to live But I can't take the breath I need to take That my life may continue from day to day Trying to let God have his way Is this the dues I'm forced to pay, For not doing things his way If that's the story, the situation Then I surrender without hesitation. Lord, have your way, take control To you my life is more precious than I'll ever know. Without you Lord I am nothing. If these are the pains that I need to grow, Lessons pulled from tons of sorrow Then Reign on King Jesus, Because there's only one way out of this pit of despair Jesus and I can only go up from here.
