The brazen wisps of velvet stir
Upon the chiseled ledge
[The tears threaten to fall]
Moistened deep the droplets splash
Awakening my flesh
[As I learn to feel]
Thickened are the tiny wells
The sorrows of my heart
[My eyes are puffy and heavy]
Quickened is the beat that pounds
The rhythm of my spark
[My anger rises]
Yield not to careless thought am I
Bowed low upon the earth
[I am trying not to be careless and instead to pray]
Temptations war this mind to meld
To walk in blurred remorse
[Dismissing false blame]
Risen above the shadows march
Their feet resound my pain
[I'm hurting in the dark]
My eyes look up and see the truth
I'm on Your path again
[I am learning to find the Light]
