Lost in thought

I think that I’m hallucinating
      A mystical resonating
With mutilated seams
      Holding pasts, within my skin

Because the scars keep pulling open
      And inside things are still broken
I can see a light…
And it’s shining on my sin.

So now I’ll run away
And join another nightmare
      With the answer to prayer
As always,
               Past my fingertips.

Because,

We only wake in horror
      But we never last that second.
         We can never dream that second…
When screams are given reason,
And prayers are given answers,
       When
We never wake again.

- And so it was that time stood still -
     (blink, breathe, stand, fight)

(big hugggsssssss) Prayers can be answered in multiple states, we sleep so the spirits can hone us and then in the daylight when we feel revitalized that's one prayer answered! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, this is wonderful, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Alyssa, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Midnitesun,
Yes, I suppose you're right. Not what I like, but it is as it should be... Thank you for the read and reply.

Ericc,
Thank you very much, guess deep and expressive means de-pressive, eh? Again, thank you.

Always, Alyssa

Magnus,
y'know, you're one of my favorite poets here, its always nice to get a reply from you, I'm honored! Thank you very much

Ethel,
good, I always like provoking thought in people! Thank you And as for me, all has never been well, but all is as good as its likely to get, and there isn't anything worth concern. Thank you for the care though

Noah,
ah so I need sleep! No wonder! I haven't had more then two hours of sleep at once for over 2 years (except when the doctors send me to the hosp and drug me). It seems that God is teaching me a bit about the man doesn't live on bread alone thing.. and I'm learning to recieve my refreshing purely through Him. I'm alright with that though

Always, Alyssa
