Deep Waters
Knowing defeat I now softly sleep
my arms are lighter
and feet do not tread deep waters
My brain rest from spirits for the time being
I do not fight that loss of control and shut my eyes
and no man nor beast removes me from who I am
I close the gates to my home away from all
this life I have reclaimed to be solely mine
walking a closer walk with God and his Son
I mend my circles and close off my heart from the world
peace showers down upon my head I will remember the dead
the sacrifices they made for me to live and softly cry all alone
