Anguish

I feel anguish in my sight
Should I stay or take flight

The churning in my heart
I don’t know where to start

To the left, I can see
A little hope, can it be

Have I made the right decision
My brain sees only derision

I don’t know what to do
How can I guide you

The tears run down my face
I don’t want to run this race

But, am I strong enough
Now that it’s my turn to be tough

I can’t just count on two
Only a threefold cord will do

Brain, hold on through the night
Please, help me win this fight

No one knows I’m here
Struggling through these fears

Anguish, leave me please
I need God’s comforting breeze

My anguished days will cease
Only when I am lulled to sleep

Now darkness has its say
But, my integrity will stay

Anguish leaves me now
I’ve beaten you, somehow
