this pain

rides through me
it is all I am

it is all I have become
in dark moments like this

I seek a way out

like Bilbo seeks escape
from the cave below
where Gollum waits
where Gollum knows.

from darkness
from deep despair
from fear

Let me fade
where no one knows
where no one cares

and let me rest
let me rest
until I can gain some
strength...

but I dream...

will no one
hold me accountable?
for the love
i choose?
for the pain
that I, alone...
let grow?

then you call
you tell me this...

that you heard my words
you cried tears
as you read my words

did you hear me?
Who I am?

.....

I have nothing left
except the smallest hope
that my Lord will see
this long trapped life
and that he will Grab hold of
this fading time
and He will choose
to rescue me
from this endless strife.
and let me
live...

with Him
in Eternity..

This was really special....

...struck me as words from a tender heart that is all to familiar with pain. You express yourself very well. Thanks for sharing here...

I love your logon name...seems full of hope.

I don't know that you could ever escape to a place where 'no one knows or cares'...as you seemed to express here.

Thanks for sharing here...it really touched me...can't seem to stop reading these words.

Thank you absurd, lighthouse, and Loyal Warrior - I appreciate that you found it meaningful. I was feeling a lot of pain when I wrote it - emotions can overwhelm me at times. This is just a release or expression of that I guess.

There are a lot of talented writers here, and those who contribute deeply touching words that others have written. I love to come here and read.

But my words are just that to me, words. It is theraputic for me to dump them out here. Thanks again for your thoughts.

Take care,
Dawnn
