For Me

All this worry it dries my soul
My internal suffering feels like a hole
It eats at me, beats at me
I often wish it would flee from me
Yet this worry I welcome
The hope and terror beckon
The unknown I live for
If only so that I am not forsaken
My previous existence fresh in my mind
I accept my binds
The new circumstances brought to light
God free me from my plight!
I wish only peace of mind
So my 'control' on this I must resign
Trust in you is the only way
To once again see the light of day
The outcome I care about the most
Yet prayer on this I cannot boast
Such a thing I feel selfish
Others to pray for me I wish
To ask I feel fear and shame
Please just remember my name.

Simply put: I like it. It

Simply put: I like it. It has a good meter to it, it rhymes like song lyrics. It has depth to it, but not enough to drown the reader in. Overall, I like it.
