the shelter of your heart
written by rick imamoto on april 2002.
spirits mock
my every movement
my every thought
from the deepest recesses
of my mind
with cruel
and malicious intent
they attempt to drive me
to madness and despair
may their efforts
fall to earth in vain
to drown in the sea
collected from every fallen tear i shed
i put forth my humble request
assist me
in my determination
to rise above this madness
to shed this light
upon those who dwell
in shadows of ignorance and hate
fill my heart
with gratitude
and love
let me not be foresaken
grant me refuge
in the shelter
of your heart
