The labyrinth is nigh

Do you desert me, venerable Strength? 
I bear reverence still, Ancient of Days
I am rallying the last sinew-
Expedite my deliverance! 

Convolution confounds-  
I negotiate its contortions,
The labyrinth is nigh,
I am wrung dry battling

I weep the nights,
Whisper on my knees; That
The words lose their meaning,
The yoke weighs heavy

In the dark I grapple; a foe,
Through his thrashing heart plunge the fiery cross
I writhe amid the crackle of blinding heat
I; of the heart in throes
