Halfway

by Stumbling Shaman   Jan 31, 2009


I hold my visions long after the battle is lost
My senses still reeling
At what my stubborn streak has cost
Burning with a fire that surpasses any feeling
Too calm for sane, too fierce for desire

Too steady to harbour any doubts
Or be quietly led astray
Still too intense to scream my frustrations out
Between faith and the unfathomed
I'm trapped in the hell of halfway

And when my frayed mind returns to you my dear
Those whispered words haunt me still-
Promising you there was nothing to fear
I know we both believed until
It finally came true

    Matt,
    I don't know how you do it, but every word that you put down seems to somehow touch my heart. You have a way of reaching to the deepest point and grabbing it with all that you have. This is beautifully written and you can tell that you put a piece of yourself into it. I thank you for sharing it with us.
    With love,
    Christina
