Lost and Torn

Lost and Torn

Waves of emotion crashing down
Darkness looming all around
My head is hurting, too many thoughts in there
I seem unable to find answers anywhere

Torn between patience and utmost urgency
Torn between understanding and severe jealousy
Unable to think, confusion deep inside
Unable to reason, I feel I need to hide

But I will pull it together and stand up tall
I will not give up before I give my all
More than me God knows what I can take
He has used this test to bring me wide awake

Lord grant me the strength I need to go on
Fill my heart Lord and keep my mind strong
But the biggest prayer I make this day
Please open my eyes Lord, and show me the way
