A Prayer

I wish on every first star I see
and pray every single night
that you will come back to me
and make everything alright.

As I pray I stare at the dark night sky
and the tears roll down my hopeless face.
I pray that you won't let me go
and let another take my place.

I wonder if I'm even heard
of if I waste my time
praying and wishing at night
that you will become mine.

Why can't my prayers be answered?
Why won't my wishes come true?
I don't ask for too much,
I only want to be with you.

Please god, if you are listning
I feel it's meant to be
Please let my prayers come true
please bring him back to me.

oh honey this is so touching, but I have to tell you, sometimes you thank God for the unanswered prayers...you won't see that  till later, as life has blind corners we aren't meant to see around until we are there   If it's meant to be, it will be, and if not, it's because God knows there is something else in store for you.   be patient....I do know how hard it is. and I remember having the same prayers....then later in life smiling and thanking God, for knowing what was best for me, even though at the time my heart was full of pain, from the want and the not understanding....(((hugs)))

i agree with sea about what she said about your prayers coming true maybe not right away...you have to give those things time...i think this was a very emotional poem..i enjoyed it a lot..i think you expressed yourself nicely...

*sigh* heart-breaking prayer...yes, it ahs touched me as well...

and i think SEA said it all...and thats exactly what i needed to hear.

in this poem, your emotions were very well protrayed...and sincerely written. i liked it.

i relate to the prayer as i wish for certian things. As, you do. take care and stay strong.

Thank you guys so much. I know inside that I just have to wait but I am so impatient!! I mean I don't want to be sad but no matter how hard I try, nothing works. People love to take advantage of my kindness and I always forgive them. I can't help the way I feel ya know? It's so hard to sit back and just let life take its course with no say in what happens. Thanks again, your responses really make me think that someday things may just get better.

Maybe it's just not time yet
Or maybe, you'll meet someone else
Just don't stop praying though
never lose hope.

donde está mi amour?
wo ist meine Liebe?
