A Path Covered

Tunnel vision in the night...
      Left alone with breathless sight...
                  Touched with tears that refuse to dry...
                                      Hidden fears that just won't fly...
Scars that sit under my skin...
            I'm ankle high in a stream of sins...
                    The path surrounds my dreams of faith...
                               With a fork in the road that keeps me staight...
