Burning brighter,
the light taunts me.
The flame grows higher,
and my wants corrupt me.
Cuts and tears in the skin beneath my torso,
lies and affliction is all I knew.
Wounds and deception showed no mercy,
on a body that’s already bled through.
Mourning the loss of my sanity,
I scream out for you.
Lost in the words of my hopelessness,
I cried out for you.
So here I am,
falling on my knees.
I’m for you,
use me as you please.
So here I am,
into your arms.
Please take me in,
and show me your warmth.
Behind a fake mask,
I cry to myself.
In a world where I abide,
like an open book on a shelf.
Pages ripped out,
and words erased.
It’s far too much,
to understand this place.
Numbers go up,
and my eating goes down.
the higher they scale,
the harder I hit the ground.
So father,
pull me in close.
In your arms I plead.
Hold my pieces together,
because I can’t hold me.
With you I overcome,
with you I survived.
I was lost within a battle,
But you saved my life.
With cold hands holding me down, I will rise above this.
I will rise above this through His love.
