something within

There is something within me

That is strong enough

To keep me from toppling

Over the edge of Sanity,

Over the ledge of frustration

Or over the hedge of All-out foolishness.

It leads me to prayer

When I would otherwise Break.

There is something in my make-up

Or my bringing up

Or just the way I look up

That straightens my back

And bows my head.

It becomes the focus of my meditation.

The sentiment in my supplication,

The reason for my transformation.

That thing inside me

Has me choosing light

Though darkness covers all.

It wells up like ocean waves

Come to drown those who Think they deserve to push me back,

Hold me down or Steal my joy.

I have a spiritual strength that Grows deeper and speaks louder as I get to know

More about who I am. And I know that i Love every moment.
