can be feeling sometimes dead
yet somehow painfully alive
I...
can be wishing it would just die
yet I feel myself hanging onto it
with rope burned hands
So tired at times I could lay here as dead
but the lifeblood refuses to stop pulsing through my veins
Right here--between dead & alive...
With both desires--to die & live...
Hope is alive, though I try to kill it
When will my heart believe...
That to live is Christ, & to die is gain
