I walk the warm hiding of night.
Yet I fear the dark places of death.
Though my faith is strong.
My flesh remains weak,
Very human.
I look down into that open grave,
Everyday upon rising.
Using the wall to drag myself up.
I grow weaker,
The darkness grows nearer,
Even though I seek solace,
In the light.
I still have anger and fears,
May God forgive me,
Because I want to,
Shake my fist at the heaven,
And shout in anger,
WHY ME!

excellent!
Beautiful indeed! This is one that touched me and brought tears to my eyes. -
"why me" is something I've shouted in the broad deserts of arizona, utah, and new mexico... i've hurled it up to the stars on frosted nights in the high sieras and in the rocky mountains from california to washington, from colorado to wyoming. "why me" is a pittiful call i've spat through clawed fingertips by the crashing sea and the rushing river.
i've never been given an answer. i've given up asking. but i see it in the desert, the mountains, the waters, the stars, but only in recent years. the answer is apparant. because i am, and because they were. the process is never ending, and the cries never ceasing.
