When Words Are Lost

I am trying to find the words to say, The ones that dismantle feelings of dismay, The ones that cut chords from youthless graves, The ones your prophets said would save, I am trying to get the courage to finally stand, Still, and firm with might in my hands, But the more I try the more I fail, Surrendering is the only way to begin this tale, Light overwhelms my darkest days, As joy floods all bareness, I begin to sing your praise, For the "I" in me is what needs to be set free, You’re the one in control of my destiny, Only selfless cries will bring about this change, The wilderness is where all the brokenness, Is rearranged. I am trying to find the time to express, All the anxiety’s that tug me into depressed, I am trying to convey emotions from the heart, Praying that when you hear them you won’t rip me apart, For my whole life I’ve lived amongst sinking ships, That it’s become second nature to constantly slip, But I reach out my hand to the sunset this night, And you greet me with words that allow my spirit to ignite, Light overwhelms my darkest days, As joy floods all bareness, I begin to sing your praise, For the "I" in me is what needs to be set free, You’re the one in control of my destiny, Only selfless cries will bring about this change, The wilderness is where all the brokenness, Is rearranged. So I’m slowing down and letting go, Allowing the river to simply flow, Slowing down, so all will see That Gods mighty hand is the one saving me. By: Sabina Nicole 6/10/12 Written in the key of C
