Alone

 

With every fear filled step of dread

Deeper into the darkness now I tread

A lonely trail with no end in sight

I blindly tread the eternal night

 

A cracking twig stops me dead

Frozen now I strain ahead

Unseeing, one sense down

Beads of sweat come dripping down

 

A haunted breeze

Stirs the slumbering trees

‘Oh Lord if you could’

Get me out of this endless wood

I take it this is from the heart and fits in well with the IP phrase. If it is present personal testimony, I join you with the prayer that the Lord soon 'would' get you out of the 'wood', and that meanwhile He would uphold you. But I can see that as you still cry to Him in it, you still have a deep sense of seeing the 'as yet unseen' things ahead though feeling so physically and spiritually low, and in the dark at present.

I am fine Rhiannon, I am not getting a lot of free time for writing at the moment, but the Lord keeps finding ways of  both keeping me busy and making me smile.   I am currently involved with a public relations post within GA as well as editing New Life.  I pray you are well.  I am never alone when I have my faith.

You capture a horrible sense of night and of limbo, Forest. xxRay
