Pull me in...

This deep dull ache just wears me down,
It grinds me til I'm in the ground,
Until the earth just pulls me in
And holds me in her calm...

Every action, every word, is such a chore to do..,
I strain to smile and wear my face as I'm expected to...
 
The days grow long and weary, though
It's far from winters height...
The sunshine doesn't shine so
And I wish it was the night...

Oh darkness come now, swallow me,
Take me from this place,
Lift me, let me fly again,
And feel the thrill of chase...
 
I don't know, I just can't win,
My world is so confused...
With hassle and with heartache,
I strive to write this muse,

Words from heart flow easily,
Words of pain do not,
But when both flow together,
It's the tears that tie the knot...

A Mackerel Sky...

A mackerel sky in the dead of night is a good sign for the morrow, When the beauty of the dark banishes all sorrow, When the heart finds peace at last, And seeks to move beyond the past... In life, in love, in health, in pain, To pulse forever, blood in veins, Spirits dive and Spirit soars, Moving on through open doors... Looking til we find a way, Search until the break of day, Keep eyes open, hope to find, Fast and final peace of mind...
