Sanctuary

Where the Mountains Hold me

I have found sanctuary in the hold of the mountains.

A place in the arms of people that were once strangers,

and strength in the values laid in my lap.

I ran from my prison,

and found freedom,

in the places between the trees.

I hid from my faults,

and gave myself a chance to grow,

into someone new.

And as I face the reality,

that I must retreat,

from my new found home,

and return to the one,

that I left behind,

I have found myself restless.

Left anxious as I approach the journey ahead.

God released me from the web,

In which I had strung myself in,

and gave me the time I needed to heal myself ,

and now I must learn,

to allow my heart to carry me on.

For fear rest in my mind,

but strength rests in my soul,

and determination shall guide my body.
