Unseen icy fingers choke the alliance between self and soul
A puppet of the enemy, bent on dominion of the will
A patient contender, a master of subtle coercion
Marshaling thought and action toward ever deepening obscurity
Hopelessness, fear, greed and selfishness
A subtle cocktail of self deprecating behavior
Wearing a daily mask to hide the truth
My neighbors have no idea
Lying awake in the pitch of night
Straining to hear that small voice in the dark
Outstretched arms plead for ascension
Crying for that merciful release
A glimmer of light on the horizon
The seed of hope takes hold deep within
Tears of joy still fresh on my cheeks
As a shadowy figure creeps to the backdoor
