Breath of Grace

Breath of Grace

I am
always
In touch
With
My
Rainbow
Though
My
sights
On it
Is
From
A 
dark
Chamber
That 
Pain
Provides

I am 
Lost
Though
I live
As 
I am
Found

Fake it
Until
You
Make
It
Is the force
That
Drives
Me

Awake
I supress
The agony
I feel inside
Asleep
The demons
Have a free for all
Releasing
The
Leash
That
Controls
the
Insanity
That
I shamefully
Feel

Forever fearful
Of abandonment 
I have already
Lost
My dad
Through
Death
And siblings
Through 
My actions
That I did
On my own
Accord

My offspring
Stays
With
Me
My spouse
Continues
To hold my
Hand
and
My mother
Has already
Reached
My
Rainbow
In
Her
Belief
in
Me

One day
And one
Day.soon
In life
Not
death
This is
where
I will
Stand
At the
end
Of God's 
Promise
where
The shackles 
of
Self inflicted 
Turmoil
Is
Broken
By
The
Breath
Of
Grace.......
