Wakefulness

Wakefulness 

In my wakefulness, sleep evades me

Scared to enter the turmoil in my consciousness 

Thoughts buried in the depths of my subconsciousness

Prevent sweet restfulness

Wrestling with the painfulness, almost driving me to madness

When will it end, this messiness 

This long chain of loneliness

Binding my soul with its steel coldness 

Reciting up to heaven, words steeped in prayerfulness

Lord help me soar to your fortress

Wrap me in your comeliness

Deliver me, I am your child

Fill me with Jesus' righteousness

Enable me to dwell in your fullness
