Wake Up

Wake up!

Here I am in this dark abyss,
Trying to shake the devils kiss.
This pain I must rid from myself,
And hide it away on the darkest shelf.
I didn't believe it could hurt so much,
My broken heart, now needs a crutch.
My heart has been played, as though its a game,
The ups and the downs, its all the same.
But I feel every jolt, every bump, every toss,
My heart it aches, for it feels a loss.
My body can't hold in all of these fears,
They must be released, through hours of tears.
Words can't explain the pains that I feel,
It's something new, Something exquisite and real.
Now why do I sit here, just moping around?
Can't I see thats what put me on the ground?
I'll myself up, real quick you see,
The ground is no place, for THIS boy to be

I'm now off the ground, and I'm feeling great,
The path that I'm on, is now narrow and straight.
I need to feel some peace in my soul,
So the Savior, my heart, He did console.
I could not see then, that the Savior was near,
But now looking back, I see it so clear.
At that time I thought, that I was alone,
All I could do is; mope, cry, and moan.
But through all of this, the Savior stood by,
Silently saying "There's no need to cry.
I'll always be walking, here at your side,
Now quicken your pace, and lengthen your stride."
