I'm sitting here,
all alone.
In the corner of a
black room.
And the walls are
all caving in.
Lost in the
emptiness,
With no way out.
No hand to hold,
No shoulder to cry
on.
This hurricane in my
mind,
Refuses to let me
breath.
Or move a single
inch.
My body is
paralyzed.
Fear is taking over.
I need someone to
talk to,
But no one is there.
All I see is a pitch
blank.
The darkness is
blinding.
The floor beneath my
feet is melting.
Like I'm drowning in
quick sand.
I try to scream at
the top of my lungs,
But nothing comes
out.
Not even a squeak.
At one point I stop
struggling.
Purse my chapped
lips,
And close the
swollen eyes.
The quagmire
couldn't kill me.
Once I realized that
and took a deep breath,
The darkness was
still there.
So I bent down,
holding my breath.
And took a dip in
the mud.
Falling prostrate I
found what I needed.
Everything anyone
could ever need.
What I found was
You.
Your Hand, Your
Shoulder,
Your Love, Your
Support.
Your Solutions, and
what not?
I felt a spark emerge
from within me.
That rose and rose
and reached the sky.
Once I lifted my
face I saw it was there.
Pitch black but more
beautiful than ever.
So calm and
soothing, enveloping me entirely.
But the spark kept
growing brighter.
And the night didn't
seem to mind.
It kept smiling,
stretching its limbs.
And yawned softly,
closing its eyes.
The sun was rising
and the spark was glowing,
As the magic kept
growing stronger.
Your magic, the ever
unparalleled.
Now light danced all
around me, taking my hand.
And I followed
joyfully singing Your songs.
Grinning, laughing,
unable to count Your blessings.
Being grateful to
You for everything.
As the glass walls
of loneliness lay shattered.
And the shackles of
pain left undone.
