PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

locked in a cold dark prison without an escape

waiting for this pain that I feel to fade

I wait quietly while I drop to my knees in prayer

cause all of the pain that I feel is hard to bare

I am in chains and I am reaching as far as I can

desperately trying with all that I have, with all I am

I am so afraid and so tired of fighting this war

I wish that I could just surrender and not fight anymore



chorus

I'm crying out

Jesus, can you hear me

I'm down on my knees

please stay here with me

and hold me till the storm is over

I'm crying out to you



bleeding internally and screaming inside

melting with every tear that I've cried

sleepless nights come and go as the days go by

cause I can't sleep no matter how hard I try

so I close my eyes and I wonder how long

cause all along I have tried to be strong

but it gets harder and harder with every day

sometimes I just want all of this pain to go away

chorus



I could scream a thousand curse words

I could blame you for all that I go through

I could taste the bitterness upon my lips

and touch hatred with my fingertips

but instead I will raise my hands and say let it be

cause I will do whatever you ask of me

and though I am tired and worn to the bone

I know that I have never been on my own

chorus
