You made sweet promises
That I liked to hear.
You said that in hard times
You'd always be there.
I believed every word of it-
Matter of fact, I believe it still.
But in all honesty,
My faith's wearing somewhat thin.
Doubts wash over me
That I try to assuage
But I don't know how long
I can keep them at bay,
Or continue to delay
The crumbling of my defences
In the face of warring elements
That seem so damn relentless.
I rejected the darkness once before
But this test is just so hard to endure.
While I don't enjoy feeling sorry for myself
Right now I am in need of help.
But if somehow You fail to come through,
I have no idea what I'm gonna do.
