God
God, can you hear me calling? Can you hear me calling out for you?
I am begging and pleading to be rescued
I do not know what else to do
God, can you send me a gush of wind so that I can catch my breath?
I am suffocating inside myself
Gasping for air as I inhale satin bringing me to my death
God, can you make it rain so that it will wash away the tears falling from my eyes?
Every time I try to escape I fail
And another part of me dies
God, can you hold out your hand for me because I have fallen onto the floor?
Please lead me to salvation
I don’t want to live inside this hell anymore
God, can you forgive me for all of my sins?
Please give me another chance
Or else satin wins
God, can you pick me up so that i can stand tall?
I have grown so weak
And I feel so small
God, can you bless me with a miracle so that I know that you are real?
I have grown so numb
And afraid to feel
God, can you love me because I am lost and alone?
Please do not give up on me
This is all I have ever known
God, can you protect me from myself for I am who I most fear?
I am my own worst enemy
And I often push people away whenever they get near
God, can you help me find myself because I don’t know who I am anymore?
I no longer recognize my own reflection
I am not the same person I had been before
God, can you hear me calling and do you hear me when I pray?
Please remove the shackles of my past
So that I no longer have to feel this way
