" CONVERGENCE " ( eating my soul away )

When I consider the lotic pain
My disease is causing me
My skin crawls
With the hurt of it
My Love is all alone
And cryin'
While my mother needs me home
For soon, she'll be dyin'
And I am stuck in the rocks
On the shore
Of pain's disgrace
Where I wonder about Convergence
Why so much pain and Love
Bloom together
In such a tiny space
Is there a reason
For God to have taken
My strength
And just given it away
During the very days
So much Love
Has come my way
I feel like crawling
Into a darkened hole
And crying for the child
My pain
Has made of me
Then
In the darkness
Of my despair
All I can do
Is pray and learn
That without the use of words
My soul
Would fade away....
