Faith

When no-one else
Is here for me
I talk to you
When so alone
Confessing all my inner fears
Thoughts through prayer
Through flooded tears
You listen so intently
Feeling my every need
Comforting my mortal pain
Leading me to believe
That all my suffering
Will soon depart
Troubles too will disappear
Fear will become an inner strength
To dry away my torrential tears
Doubt will subside
Love will be regained
Hope will return reunited with
A faith restored
A lasting love
A life adored
Whole, once again
Joy everlasting
Thank you for listening
My heavenly friend
Breathe

Like trying to breathe
While holding my breath
I’m drowning in pain
With waves of regret
My message to you
So misunderstood
Tangled and garbled
You don’t see the good
Intention amiss
Distance prevails
A growing divide
Love on the rails
I’m losing the battle
Nothing to gain
Fighting alone
A losing game
Trust so lost
Envy to hate
Love destroyed
A twisted fate
A hope for change
A prayer in the wind
A message to you
To love me again
