Break In the Storm

It's scarey and curvey
and twisty and turny
this carnivale ride in my head
one minute up 
and the next minute down
in all the confusion my soul
soul starts to drown
is it my fault 
is it even real
to higher powers
i appeal
is this a storm that's 
inside my head
or between the lines
a story unsaid
so often i feel
a boot made a steel
stomping and crushing me down
a teasing light
twinkeling bright
redemption hung 
just out of reach
the ties that binde
hold me steady
until the day that
i am ready
to face a question
so ancient and old

could it possibley be
the one holding me back.....

is ME?
