Building my castle to the kingdom

Building castles within my own confinement 
only to be hit with the harshest of realities
 & replaying what it means to be broken, to heal, and relapse
 over and over again. 
Numbing the weight of so many life choices 
Drowning out screams from all different voices.

Lord please me show me your grace.
Seeing myself in the mirror 
I'd rather not show my face.

My self esteem crumbled 
Self-worth turned to dust 
I'm suffering due to a lack of self love 
And unwillingness to trust

 Feeling as if my body left me unhealed
 without my soul intact 
Praying I could right the wrongs
 that haunt me from my past
afraid of what appears impossible
A daunting peak..  still within my grasp 
 Have to take that leap of faith
 to start me on the path

Dear Lord I pray you break these chains that refuse to set me free 
bound from years and years of pain. 
Most of which have remained unseen 
Let me feel your light my Lord
The warmth shine on my face 
I need to feel your selfless love 
I need your warm embrace.

The thought of this battle 
it heightens all senses of "fight or flight"
I'm writing this in hopes to from now until forever 
Guide me into your light.
