Sometimes I need shelter From my own mind There will be times When its you I find And I give in To the knowledge gained Too late sometimes But I’m somehow saved Always, you make me strong In your arms where I belong I cannot put it into words Or write it down No matter how holy Or upon sacred ground And I may sin Just to save face While needing more than enough From your little ways Where time doesn’t last too long In your arms where I belong Tonight I’m in your hands Don’t let me go You have a hold on me And with that, control Here in the dark I see all I need By the light you give off By the hand you lead Take me between right and wrong In your arms where I belong |

Between right and wrong...seems it's easier somehow to find love there. Enjoyed this! |

PK- The void that we all have can only be filled by God. That's what I get out of this beautiful poem. Thanks for sharing. |

Beautiful write PK you speak to me in riddles |

PK, there is nothing to rip apart. The light that shines as the gracious hand is extended. Accept in love... LP He is my pen, I am but the paper he |
