Healing

---

I can not handle this life
I can't take it anymore
I find it hard to go
about my mundane chores

When it is time to sleep
I lay awake
When it is time to eat
I stare at a full plate

My thoughts are not formed
just jumbles and nonsense
At home with my family
I shut away, I'm always tense

Resisting love, resisting conversation
Resisting encouragement, and all communication
My mind is broken and my spirit is dead
In the midnight hour I cry, its been said

My son says he comforts me in the night
he comes to hold me, hugging me tight
These moments I do not recall
Why, I am not there, no feeling at all

My heart is crying heal me
Heal my broken mind
Save me from this prison
I have served my time

Who can save me
Who will reach out
Is there anyone who hears
My crying heart

One night as I lay very still
Tears running back into my ears
Enormous hands scooped me up and
Rocked as a child of early years

Sssssssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhh
You don't have to weep, I have heard your cry
Sssssssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhh
You must turn to me for your supply
I will give you rest
I will give you joy
I will lift you up
You will not be destroyed
You mind is changing
For I am saving you
There is so much
That you will yet do
