In a Place That Is Healing
In A Place That Is Healing'''
I've felt this pain before
tears falling like rain
I've seen the other side of things
In a place of misery
with
needles entering my vein
Still
I hear these cries
a melody of this burden inside
no blood is spilled
these scars go deeper than the flesh
so often I held hands with
the reaper
is easement of agony carried through the night
tired dreams are
screaming
and
running away
this cannot be a nightmare
as
I am unafraid
trembling from within
is
a fear unknown
like
terror filled fright
in a bed all alone
I know
I can make it through the insanity
at
the end of this tunnel there is a light
with
every step taken in progress
I am reminded of a beautiful sight
yet
instability is there
in a mind that is unique
as
inner conflicts collide
I am painfully aware of all that I need
without that Raven once quoting for me to beware
I can rest my mind now
as
peace fills the air
sleep is healing
in a place that is fair!
