This is something I wrote as a song but it can stand alone as well. It is sad at first because it begins with where I was when I hit bottom regarding self-harm. However, the second half is about having a resolve to get better and finding that God is truly the place "to end and begin". This Post isn't meant to last long just to encourage others to keep going because there is always hope with God.
THE JOURNEY
I see the results but I don't remember.
I stand alone in this cold dark place;
where there is a hurt so deep it has no name.
I stand alone in this cold dark place;
where there is a hurt so deep it has no name.
I have not tears nor ever have.
And the friend for all my life no longer helps,
but makes me feel all the worse.
And the friend for all my life no longer helps,
but makes me feel all the worse.
My mind rages on. My insides tremble.
And my heart is loaded with guilt.
And my heart is loaded with guilt.
I see the results but I don't remember.
I stand alone in this cold dark place.
I stand alone in this cold dark place.
[WITH FEELING!]
But, I'll never give up!
I will never stop.
I will never stop.
I've found a place to end and begin (God):
To laugh and cry, to be still and even hurt;
To catch a glimpse of life and find it possible.
To laugh and cry, to be still and even hurt;
To catch a glimpse of life and find it possible.
The devil may try to kill me (and he did).
And, the demons may want to stay.
And, the demons may want to stay.
But, I'll never give up!
I will never stop.
I will never stop.
I've found a place to end and begin (God):
I can play and sing. Hold time in my hand.
People touch my heart and I'm amazed.
I reach out to them and find they truly care.
I can play and sing. Hold time in my hand.
People touch my heart and I'm amazed.
I reach out to them and find they truly care.
I'll never give up!
I will never stop.
I will never stop.
I will always remember to hope and believe.
HOPE IS LIKE THE SUN, WHICH, AS WE JOURNEY TOWARD IT, CASTS THE SHADOW OF OUR BURDEN(S) BEHIND US.
