The Depths of My Soul


I use to feel lost and insecure in who I was The pain in my life seemed unbearable and my vision became blurry Each day I sunk deeper into the dark haziness of my mind I felt like dying, while I kept grasping for clarity and understanding in my life, and why I did the things I did The pain of my past leaves a searing mark on my soul and I'm trying to wrench it free, but its claws cling for dear life never lessening its grip Blood seeps through my gaping wounds, I cry out to You, Where are You? I scream in agony, "save me from the pain I cause myself..." In the dark where I feel alone, I hear Your voice, so sweet and loving, declaring, " I love you, I always have" I feel the warmth of Your presence and my soul mends back together the darkness I was shrouded in simmers away and I begin to see You clearly, I give everything to You, I fall down to Your feet basking in the love You so freely give unto me
