Mind Battle
In the middle of the battle; feeling all alone
Afraid to ask for help, but I can’t do this on my own
Trying desperately to hold on to what I know is real
Feels like I am hurting the only ones who care
The burden that they carry is really mine to bear
I want to protect them…I wish there was a way
My mind is fearful and wants to run away
There are no easy answers; no quick fix this time around
I’ve all but given up that I will ever gain new ground
I struggle all the time with what to hold back and what to say
I don’t want to weigh down others with my issues every day
This constant turmoil in my mind is getting harder to let go
It is causing me to doubt myself and beginning to takes its toll
My faith is not in question here. I believe, Lord, You are there
But I am losing this battle and not sure I even care
I pray that You will end this, and that someday I’ll be well
But how or when that happens…only time will tell
