I’m Free

The thought hits against the wall of pain, Inside my chest there lays a boundary I can’t cross, I don’t know how to row that boat, My responsibilities lay bare, Figuring myself out, I’m on the right path, Moving forward, down that lonely lane, Realizing that the skeletons in my closet don’t define me, I’ve…

Where Will I Be

Looking in the mirror I see You, Lord, Looking back at me, High, drunk, enraged, full of anxious fear, oh Lord, Where do I go, What do I say, Do I just let go, Or, do I stay, How can I go on, oh Lord? My life has gone by me, All this time lost,…
