Gave in one final time.
Turning my back on all I’ve ever been,
choosing you,
choosing life.
Walking away from sickness and pain
and I don’t feel the same.
Take away my mind.
Take away me.
Break the chains of my sorrow,
setting me free.
From time to time
I have waded deeper into death,
now I know whose breath is in me.
Here I go – to and fro,
all alive and all aglow.
In the darkness I see you
and you see me.
Giving up hiding – giving up dying.
Freeing my being and dreaming of flying.
His love is sustaining,
His mercy is pure
and I’m no longer fading
away in the blur.
