Those Days

Those days...
You know those days?
Those days
that stretch into forever and beyond...
those days
when the light is dim
and you have to call on Him
when your shadow
cries for you
groans deep down
in its belly bottom
and sweet release passes untrue
as you knew it would.
But for the grace of God
where would I be?
It is those days
when you cry
"I will fight!"
I will fight
for I will live 
and not die!
And as the shadows pass over
you know,
those days will become your yesterdays...
