unleashed

So I silently fight this war against myself,
Facing once again my mortal fears and agonies.
Tending to the battle scars,
I run, trying to find quiet in the turmoil of my mind.
A place to rest my tired soul.
My heart beat is quickened, as it reminisces a familiar place,
A place where sorrow and sweetness meet,
Comfort banishing the sting of that blade.
Where peace rules and where one could just drown in the ocean of love.
I run fast to the Master of this house,
And He hastens towards me.
My tears turn to joy.
The war within me is won, and the memories - faded.
