Words

Here I am again at the end of the night.

My mind wanders as I close my eyes.

So many things going on in my head.

I can't explain how I don't wanna lose again. 

My hopes are up high enough that it scares me,

But I'm not about to give up this chance you see. 

I'll give it everything. I'll give it all I've got. 

Even when my brain tells me all I'm not

I'll fight through my head through every twist and turn. 

That's why I sit here, writing down these words.

Dark thoughts just fester there right at the edge. 

This is the only way to get them out of my head. 

One upon a time words saved my life. 

I drew a line as day turned into night. 

"For God gave His Son that whosoever believes shall never die, 

but have everlasting life."

Thankful for the blessings... and the battles that come with them.
