This is where

This is where I hope to close my eyes to the past And open them up to the new in me Where I shall no longer conform To these thoughts that are pursuing me I pray everyday for the joy to renew in me My mind is gone without a trace And I feel like I'm losing me This is where I face the battle alone The only soldier on the battlefield ready and armed This is where I recognize the good from evil Where Gabriel sounds the trumpet of alarm This is where I lie down my burdens And pull away from lusts Where I search for someone to trust Cuz in this world someone to love is a must This is where I turn to the father For guidance and direction Take a look inside myself Give my soul a thorough inspection This is where I confess all my faults This is where I unleash my grief This is where I become made whole This is where I start my journey to make a new me _Dakyria Dudley ©
