Let Me Be |

I run from the truth that baits me here tonight, Refugee heading for the unknown, Sole survivor of this endless plight, A soul with nowhere I can call home. When will my soul be truly free? In some ways I'm blind, when will I see? My self induced hell, I need to break this damning spell. I pray for release from all this earthly pain, Shell shocked I can't face anymore strain, I struggle now to hold back those tears, I'm weak, can hardly fight the fears. What does it mean to be free? So I'm blinded, when will I see? Is this what hell is meant to be? Why won't 'they' let me be? Demons, memories, betrayed by my own heart, God I wish someone could have warned me at the start, Hopes, courage, all to rare, Sometimes I wish I just didn't care. Living in dark days, Hoping for some peace and light, Hoping for the courage, To continue the fight. These feelings, this hurt, this constant pain, Constant letdowns, will I survive? Remain sane? I try so hard to banish the bad, And I'm always left feeling so weak and sad. Will I ever be free? Why does this always happen to me? My hell rolling on endlessly.. Why won't they just let me be? A heart and soul are not judged by how much you love, but by how much you are loved by others... ~Isis~ (Goddess - Sovereign of the Spirit) |

Isis, you can never give up. . . you will be free one day my friend. . . I know that you have the strength inside of you. . . You know that we all have to fight through the dark to make it to the light. . . don't go back. . . don't let "them" pull you back in. . . Excellent words, my friend. . . -------------------------------------------------------< !signature--> That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl [This message has been edited by Sven (edited 04-09-2000).] |

Isis, I know the feeling and go through it as well. One day you will be free and what a glorious scene it will be.*S*...stay strong. Daniel The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, not the kindly smile, not the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone believes in him and is willing to trust him with his friendship." --Ralph Waldo Emerson |

I want to yell at them for not letting them be, Isis. Because I know how this feels. It's as if everyone lives in their own hell sometimes and it's just so horrible. I hope these bad feelings pass soon. I know some days can just feel like you're living in that hell more than usual. Be your strong self. Joy |
