The Eye Of A Burning Needle










Falling into my ever-deepening abyss
I can not see clearly
The face that launched my heart
Into the heavens
The place that is finally taking hold of remnants
Left in the shallows by grace

My eyes fill with the water of life...salty...pure
And as the sun rises over my horizon
I see no light, no gateway of freedom
Only the chains that bind my soul to...something... 
Tight and restraining they reel me in
Through the eye of a burning needle


God in his ultimate wisdom knows my struggle
He sees a heart breaking for no reason
And he is angry...I'm not sure with whom...
My mind...so filled with endearment...is cloudy

Letting go is futile and unproductive
To all I ever held dear

No more will I run outside of my cocoon
I will instead embrace the warmth it offers
Where thoughts of you are still fresh...clean
And I can dream the darkness with abandon
Trying to fathom reality
It is too difficult to love
Too painful to be under its influence
Lord take me from this rock
That threatens to chew me up
Spit me out and leave me weeping forever
Lord? Can you hear me?

I am ruthlessly finished
