And I Ask Myself

And i ask myself,
is all the pain worth this life,
slamming the door wide open,
never to be closed,
emotions flooding like the tide,
pulled under by a turbulent mind

Once you get used to drowning,
it doesn't feel so bad,
losing the life that was,
growing gills,
breathing love,
to give up everything to hold your hand,
as I ask myself one last time

Yes, a thousand time yes.
To be inspired by love,
finding a light shining in our soul
that we might find our way,
knowing the journey is never walked alone,
to be complete,
cradled in the hand of god
