Dear God,
answer my prayers,
close their eyes,
I hate those stares,
so cold they petrify

chase away my pain,
mend my heart,
and wash away the stain,
pre-set for a new start

hold my hand,
hold up my head,
strengthen my legs
so I can stand,
wipe every tear I shed

brighten every single day,
so I may not walk in darkness,
I know you hear every word I say,
and with every word I am blessed

my head hurts so bad,
my heart cannot beat,
constantly I am sad,
I declare defeat.

I understand this feeling...sometimes we have to declare defeat

Well - you're certainly addressing this to the right person.  Let God take the battle from you when you've given all you have.  Rest in Him and you will find that which you seek.

perfect prayer/poem I.T...
we can find strength in our faith and our words...
take care, jm

 Now for me some words come easy
But I know that they don't mean that much
Compared with the things that are said when lovers touch
You never knew what I loved in you
I don't know what you loved in me
Maybe the picture of somebody you were hoping I might be

No matter what god or gods you believe in this would be the perfect request!!

dwells in every soul...
