Let's pray together

Faintly, I these days I wonder
Why my seamless actions are judged
As a prisoner of your honest surmise.

Next to the purity of my actions
Are the righteousness of yours, locked
Intertwined in an endless skirmish for truth.

Late at night when darkness consumes
There I leave all frustrations, in silent prayer
luminaries lift me, with sleep this world disappears.

Seems you're an equation beyond me,
As we cycle and roller coaster through sunny days
Then thunder storms, for which we're never primed.

How can we communicate if trust
Isn't our table? If faith has been exhausted?
Going crazy for sunlight at the end of this tunnel.

Then maybe tonight when darkness consumes...
With me in prayer you'll share your frustrations.
Together, drift to with luminaries as the world disappears.
