Now I Stand Tall
Walking in the dark,
Screaming for a light.
Scared to move an inch,
There's nothing in sight.
Begin to feel a presence,
Heart is beating fast.
Fear takes over my blood,
How long will this last?
Running, not looking back,
Hoping for a door.
Images fill my mind,
I can't take it anymore.
I fell to the ground,
Then the floor gave way.
Now falling in the dark,
I begin to pray.
Then Someone grabbed my arm,
And stopped my fall.
Put me back on solid ground,
And now I stand tall.

Battles Within
When your soul loses power,
And falls down an intense slope.
I will catch you at the bottom,
I will guide you to hope.
Everyone you've ever trusted,
Has stabbed you in the back.
Seems like your always crying,
Thoughts never cease to attack.
Battles don't stop within,
You can never find peace.
You can't run from your problems,
But you can be released.
When you fail to win a fight,
Get back up and stand your ground,.
I'm here to help you win the struggle,
I'll pick you up when enemies surround.
Just keep your faith,
It will get you through life.
Just don't give up,
Or you will live in strife.
