"Salvation" May 2010

It's been awhile
Since I've tried to sit back and redial, reminisce,
Capture the thoughts in my head,
Really comprehend just where I stand.
My life is journey as uncertain as what lies on the horizon that surrounds us.
I try and escape my mind,
Erase the second life for so long I've been living.
But it's that haze of separation from reality,
That blocks out losses casually.
Try to numb the pain, just feel it spread.
It's like a never-ending thought,
Like the one that plays so frequently through my head.
Fighting a battle but questioning if it's even my own.
But when can you ever be sure a battle's not worth fighting for?
So many times,
When it's already too late
You've realized you've become a person
You've truly began to hate.
Filling voids to avoid thoughts,
Chasing fantasies, to avoid reality.
This life is deemed so simple,
When you're only thinking selfishly.
Too many times we learn the hard way,
Haven't you seen?
Lost lives or souls, is what it takes for salvation to be deemed.
It's hard to believe it's come to this,
Or that my innocence I'd begin to miss,
When it left?
No one could say,
But God my Savior,
Is still leading my way.
A relationship that I never should have let slip aside,
Will always be my one true guide.
A life I've chose to better my own,
No longer living for myself,
I kneel at Your Throne.
