Where have you gone?

Where has your mercy fled?

Do you see the tears

 drenched upon my bed?

Do you hear my cries for shelter?

Do you remember me at all?

Please tell me you’re not just watching

As my kingdoms rise and fall.

One hundred and twenty days

And still I cannot breathe.

Have you buried me beneath

A burden that will not leave?

I know you s...

it settles once again.

I cannot save my mother,

Though she and I both hoped that I could.

But I’m afraid that a daughter’s love

Can’t always do the t...

In this dark night of my soul

at the hands of unkind men,

when they looked at me and saw no value, 

except for every now and then.

In those moments of quiet desolation,

when I begged to hear your voice,

when I pleaded for you to save me

and when I wrestled with your choice.

For all the ways I can forgive them,

though it makes no sense at all.

The winds of a...
