Questions

Will this battle never end,

The waves of darkness stop

Crashing on the shores of hope,

Cruelly tossing my dreams

Upon the rocks of failure?

Will I ever fully rest in peace,

The tears cease kissing my bed

And demons of sweet temptation

Be banished from my mind?

Will you reach from heaven

And heal the scars on my heart,

Renew my wings long plucked

Of any life and desire to fly?

Will you teach me to thank you

When happiness is merely a dream,

My eyes gazing wearily at eternity

And the littered remains of my past?

Will you love me despite it all,

My wandering and selfish heart,

The doubts that dwell in my mind

And the desires for lesser things?
