Let It Be

There comes days where I hate myself.
When I look the other way and pray.
Pray for a day that I can’t feel anything
and really say the things I want to say.

I have demons that rattle my cage.
Corner me and refuse to let me free.
They fuel my feelings of helplessness,
as my anxiety brings me to my knees.

I’m an enigma that can’t be solved,
the strangest of riddles and turns.
Feeling everything is such a curse,
an endless cycle of concerns.

I’ve fallen into a darkened abyss,
prisoned by my own faults and actions.
One shouldn’t be able to feel so deeply,
Lord I need salvation, a distraction.

Please give me a piece of serenity,
An instance where I can breathe.
I know I will overcome this struggle.
I just need a moment to let it be.
