My Prayer :



You left me in the darkness to face all of the pain,

My days were always cloudy, I always felt the rain.

I was too afraid to face the world, for the fear of being tormented,

I told you some crazy shit along the way, knowing that I never meant it.

I felt you turned your back on me, So I did the same to you,

Started thinking of crazy plans, a way to try and find the truth.

A truth that doesn’t even exist, A truth that’s not of this Life,

A truth of mental stability, a truth to end the fight.

I gave up all hope for everyone, all the people that surrounded me,

And then came the final blow, the hit that has forever grounded me.

I lived in seclusion, all alone, separated from the outside world,

I gave up on you, my family, my friends, and my girl.

You left me, I was stranded, how could you ever do that?

Everytime I would ask you for guidance, you’d always turn your back.

I had no choice but to live on my own, That’s the way I always felt,

I had to do it all alone, I didn’t think that anyone could help.

And then you gave me a sign, A signal to not give up,

I listened and followed, the changes were quick, big and abrupt.

My world has turned completely around, and it’s all because of you,

Never believed in all of that, But now I see that it’s true.

I am not quite sure exactly who I am praying to, but I just wanted to give thanks,

You have done so very much for me, and you never ask me for a thing.

I thank you for your Love, I thank you for your guidance and for your strength,

And if it is the only thing you ever do for me, Thank You, for you have turned

me from a boy into a man.





Amen.
