prayer

No one understands,
The pain I hold within.
My soul whimpers for a prayer
Answered,
My heart stings with fear and
Anger.
I shiver as I sleep,
Afraid this may be my last
Slumber.

Some nights,
I spent, face soaked as I weep
And pray.
He knows I’m calling to him,
He feels my agony.
I pray he sends my white horse
And prince.

Demons whisper in my ear,
Telling me I’m stuck here.
No way out.
I refuse to listen,
Hold my head high.

But no one can explain,
How I can smile without shame.
Although deep inside,
An uncontrollable wild fire
Destroys who I am.
Truthfully,
These may be my last days
And he, who hurts me,
Will get his way.

Here’s my voice,
Calling to him.
Begging for a relief.
How much more can I take
Before I break?
