The unavoidable battle.

I said I'd never go back there. 
That last step I took. 

Fully over.

But now I'm back again.
Falling harder than ever.

Can you hear me?

I wish I could erase those things...
Like those white boards, in those rooms where I was meant to become clever. 

Regret.

Why can't you see.
This is how I want it to be.

Failure.

Everytime I turn.
I lose each and every key.

Without.

There's this lacking emptiness inside me.
The darkness, taking a quick look.

Unbreakable.

Was what I thought I was.
Now it's all I wish to be.

Losing breath. 

Can't do this on my own.
It steals me like a crook.

Redemption.

I don't deserve you.
I shut you out, shoving you to the sidelines to watch my wrongdoings, and bad choices.
You still want me.

Please come for me. 
I am to weak to run. To weak to hide. To weak to even breathe anymore.

Wish upon a star.

You walk away.
All that could've been said.
No. none.
Your eyes are so dark, so kind.
Lost. everytime.
Your smile.
Melting. breathe.
Your love for Him, so astounding.
Truly. real.
I can't all but focus.
On that other she you see.
Yes, I guess it's alright with me.
But just so you know.
I fall like an aged tree.
And I break. 
Some more.

Take me.

Feel that last breath.
As I fade into the unknown.
All I can feel is darkness.

Take me.
Take me in.
My life to you I give.
Breathe.
Breathe in me.
My Savior.
Take me in.

Alone I stand.
In this bare and empty room.
The warmth I feel.
Is all but surpassing what's real.
It's you.
You're love for me.
Sigh.
Oh so real.

Take my hand.
Take me n.
My life for you I'll live.
Breathe.
That strong breath in me.
My Savior.
Take me in.

Broken and Rescued

These islands we walk upon.
grounded and lost.

We search for our lives
washed out by the sea.

No one foretold it.
No one to give that last needed answer.

He took us from the ends of the earth, from the farthest corners.
He calls;

"So do not fear, for I am with you."
"Do not be dismayed, for I am your God."
He writes us a love song.

Who measured the atlantic.
Who has held us all this time.
Who has understood us from the beginning of time.

As I walk in this darkness.
The lamps seem to be my only guide.

But my hand doesn't feel empty.
I can feel you by my side.

Yet I can feel my past.
So bleak, all those beatings.
I feel the defeat.

How could I have done this, 
and carried on with that.

But I know he redeems me
I raise my voice in these streets
Singing Him this song.
