When I feel defeated,
And I am all alone,
I use these words to comfort,
Was on a path to nowhere,
Was searching for the light
The promise of forgiveness,
Decisions wrong or right,
When I feel forsaken,
Mistaken and ashamed,
To raise my hands in triumph,
To cover up the pain,
Alluding to the process,
Transcending song or rhyme,
When I feel these feelings,
Search deep inside my mind,
For all the years forgotten,
These fleeting memories,
Proceed ahead with caution,
When I feel me be,
The monster in the closet,
Who hides behind closed doors,
That's peering from the shadows,
Beyond lost metaphors,
The lantern shining brightly,
Illuminates my psycy,
When I feel there is no way,
I feel a force that's mighty,
The winds of change can take me,
To somewhere distant place me,
When I feel me drifting off,
The moment overtakes me,
The only thing I'm craving,
But was it worth me saving?
Amazingly I feel alive,
The chains that bound me breaking,
Whatever problems facing,
I'll stand alone proclaiming,
No weapons formed will prosper now,
No drop of doubt is staying,
Enslaved to life obeying,
It costs to live still paying,
When I feel the end has come,
Flesh bones to dust remaining,
Kelly Ephraim Benjamin Jordan
