Can I, I Can

can I hold my centre

when the darkness comes to call

claiming my thoughts

inviting me to fall


can I hold my centre

when doubt pulls me down

panic grips my mind

and stomps hope to the ground


can I hold my centre

when my mind sets afire

chaos rules the day

and my strength begins to tire


I can hold my centre

my heart stands in truth

it tells the mind “quiet down

we got work to do”


I can hold my centre

I’ve broken the spell

fear has no power now

I’ve tamed the flames of hell


I can hold my centre 

I came here for this

to remember and awaken

and escape the abyss
