Mirrors of darkness with images surreal
Mirrors of pain make me turn away
Images to real with rage to gaze upon
Inflamed  by  wrong passions said to be true
Escaping them impossible to do

I try to hide

Rising above gives way to a heaviness suffocating
My dreams no longer allowed to be  envisioned
Oppressions cloud set in,  pulling me down to drown
My childhood is gone seeing no way back
Foggy mist consumes the way

I am lost

Hard to breathe here in this expanse
Too much for me to bear and care
My cells cease to function normally
I loose consciousness   of time
Arresting the very core of my being

I forgot who I am

Only a miracle can bring me back to life
The SON must thaw this frozen soul
Only HE can send the fire to burn this dross
Crying from the center of a bitter heart
Comes the scream for help

I am helpless

WOW! This is sad, and yet it's not without hope! He can melt the frozen heart, he can touch the feeling within and bring those 'dry' bones back to life! For he is the living waters!

Very well written and touching deep within!

Deeply moving! So desperate, yet the last verse brings hope,

"Only a miracle can bring me back to life
The SON must thaw this frozen soul
Only HE can send the fire to burn this dross
Crying from the center of a bitter heart
Comes the scream for help"

a miracle asked for, believing, a miracle received.
Very well written.
