'My son got mugged. Down on Boston Street.  They took a pistol to his temple and took his money.'
"The way I feel today, I am so full of rage.
If I could get near that mugger, I could blow him away.
But when you cradle me, my heart can always see,
That hatred is the real mugger strangling me.
And my soul can't breathe with this weight on me.
Until I let it go, my soul won't know no peace."
"Jesus, please just hold me
And cradle me near to your breast.
With my head against the heartbeat of heaven,
I know my poor heart can heal and rest."

'HEARTBEAT OF HEAVEN'
"Hello my friend.  It's me again.
I know I only show up when
I'm all tore to shreds.
And, so here I am.  I'm a mess again.
I'm standing in the doorway
of my oldest friend."
