Spiraling Into The LIght

 
the darkness rages
it screams out my name
with a hiss and lick of fire
it tastes one in turmoil

confusion howls
bi-polar mania brings me to my knees
shouting out to a God
i'm not sure I believe in

his nature unclear
still I find safety in the ritual
something I learned as a child
it may be only as good
as covering my head with the blankets

still I find warmth
in the faithful breathren
loyal soldiers of peace
proclaiming he has risen

I want to lay all my pain at his feet
and I have in my own way
I wonder does he have a plan
that includes my delusions?

they can't be for naught
all this internal conflict
with revelations of things i'd rather not see

there is one truth I can hold onto
I prayed it all to stop
and honestly I can say for the moment
there is a cease fire
