Bitterness erased; there’s opposition.
Memories drown in prayed repetition.
Asleep half awake, dead to inhibition.
Left me captured by faith’s proposition:
Life’s heartache dispatched
whilst soul was relaxed;
all fears breathed to life.
But follow Me Home.
Scheduled to avoid moments of silence,
for in quiet, there’s spiritual violence.
Desire loathes obligation; dark defiance.
Above and beyond; choose your alliance:
Fires in shadows
demons in meadows,
laugh at your weakness.
But follow Me Home.
OMG! This if fraught with taut emotion. I especially love this verse:
"Scheduled to avoid moments of silence,
for in quiet, there’s spiritual violence." -- Jeff

Bitterness erassed; there's opposition, excellent kinda quote.
