Terror in deep places

I describe my anxiety and fears exists through my mental illness.

Nothing afflicts like the sense of fear

My inner torment is too much to bare

My fault and my turmoil lies in the mind

My eternal wish is to be healed and made fine

Like a raging hurricane that scatters knives

I call out to God with desperate cries

Wherever I turn it’s there to haunt me

Binging dread any place that I flee

Now comes fear of different type

The kind that subdues life.

I feel such relentless opposition when I think of my future

Will I exist like this for now and forever?

I Wish I could sleep and wake up with it gone as a dream

God, bless me and hear me and heal this one grief

By mans’ concoction or with Your own peaceful hand

Let love cast out fear and in comfort will I stand
