lost?

Back against the ominous city gates
Oppression flowing through the streets
Darkness passes by my window
Seeping through the cracks

This room a prison cell
Tortures of happiness
Age a challenge undefeated
Lord come set me free.

310bpm my mind takes off
Spaghetti junction of thought
No control over any
No junction rest stop

Sleep drifts from my grasp
Mind too busy, no peace
Off switch broken or lost
Pillow a sharp nuisance

Many bodies little space
Many noises little peace
Many spaces none free.
Needing an escape.

God Speaks, I cant hear
His voice pulled away
By mindless currents
I am trying, really

Help me out God,
Show me stillness
Where I know you are
Give me peace to hear

That’s all I ask…. All I ask
