Nightmares

Nightmares; I am locked in this shell of fear
Every word I hear makes me groan in pain
Insidious peers mocking my brokenness;
Leaving me helpless, concealing my tears
Rage comes like a fire that burns inside me
End this suffering I ask, oh God, hear!
You only have the might to make or break 
A frail man like me that’s crippled in pain
Listen then, I have never asked in vain;
Faith! Give it back to me, come walk with me 
On this steep road where darkness looms I wait
Refresh my mind of the ones I have loved;
Quash my fears, let my rage subside, I beg!
Untie my chains; please let me be free to
Escape these nightmares, allow me in peace.

Silent Cry

A battered child I am;
				Bruised all over my frail body;
				I have longed to be cared for
				And yet they choose to ignore.

				My pleadings are useless;
				My cries won’t help.
				Be quiet, heart!
				Let silence be your drug.
