psalm

The heaviness 
with hands on my temples 
grips my attention 
blurs my focus 
grasping for the heart within 
I hammock in the stillness
sleeping to pass the time 
cradled in darkness 
dreams are pain 
and waking is painful 
memories are real 
life is surreal 
so why am I 
Alone in the darkness
I don't mind the headache 
the migraine is heavy 
sunlight hurts
I cling to the words 
that a man once wrote 
alone in a cave 
cradled in darkness 
I'll sing them again 
and keep on at this 
"my light, my rock
you are my fortress"
