this is a poem I wrote when I was really caught in a haze and felt miserable.....although the tone is generally depressing theirs a suprise at the end waiting for you. Tell me what ya think.

CENSORSHIP WARNING: Somewhat gory

CONFLICT

Darkness on the inside, beyond my control

must fight it, the darkness deep within

the dark energies that ravage my soul

all these things that drown me in sin

must fight them, must win

cannot fail now, cannot give in

knives and swords pierce my skin

blood seeps out,

as though from a water spout,

incapable of holding on

oh how i need the son

the holy one, the only one

Desperate here I lay,

please Lord show me the way,

I've done you many a wrong yes that is true

but i know you can make all things new.........

please bring me back to your grace

that i may stand in your holy place

standing in you complete........

please cast down your saving rope

so that my end may be one of......

HOPE

Good message. Is it intentional that the last line is formatted like a title?

actually it is, I kinda did that to sorta like end a chapter, it moved from Conflict to Hope.....If anyhing by my resoning they should appear with the same status.

Thanks for the compliment! I appreciate it!
