Writing, Crying, Praying
Poem : Writing, Crying, Praying
I lie down to sleep
with the pen and paper
by my side.
That is really when
the feelings can not hide.
Putting pen to paper
is as cathartic
as shedding tears.
I have not felt this sad
in years.
This situation is
feeding on my fears.
The tears are coming too.
Teardrops on the paper.
I am just praying-
God, I really need a favor.
I rise up from the bed
and instead,
get down on my knees,
praying fervently
regarding things
that God knows
and that He sees.
He knows my needs
and that something
is not right.
He will let me know
whether I should give up on
this particular struggle
or continue to fight.
