When the day comes to an end
And my mind won’t settle
When my eyes are sinking
But won’t fully close
I always reach for you
You bring relief
The eye of the storm
When life crashes around me
You pull me back in and whisper
“I’m always here for you”
The others don’t know
The depth of your gifts
That inviting you in
Brought me back to myself
But when you’re not there
And you’ve left me behind
I can’t hear my thoughts
My escape becomes locked
I cannot get out
No one can help
The only way through
Is to find my way back to you
I can’t let you slip away
You may kill me
I didn’t want to stay
