The Psalter


The Psalter

In the silent night,
Under moonlight,
Inside a quiet chapel,
There was an inside battle.

Between my “yes” and “no”.
Between my “stay” and “go”.
Amid my worries and my fears,
Against the happiness and cheers.

I made a step to the altar,
I grabbed the heavy psalter.
I lit the candles on the wall,
And quietly let out a howl.

A cry of pain,
Amidst the rain.
Opened the book,
And took a look.

The words looked red in candlelight,
My hands shook hard in strange delight,
The burning passion for good life,
I almost won the endless rife.

Inside the psalter was a song,
The one I felt to I belong.
I sang and sang, forget the trouble,
That was the end to my long struggle.
