Prayer

I am sad and down
I don't know what ailments have beseech me
It colours my body in red and white dots
My skin feels like jumping
Wanting desperately for attention
My body has been strapped to a load of iron
My eyes grow weary

My soul wails of an emptiness
My minds cries out in agony
Trapped in confusion and pain
Cornered by the very people who wants to aid me
Ignored by those who love me

How can I escape this treachery
How can I be in a land of freedom and cheerfulness
Oh Lord Redeem me from this depths
Hold my hand and pull me up
I believe in your miracle
I believe in you
Let me not be fed to wolves
Or eaten by maggots
nor burn in this flame

Be my sanctuary and my refuge
Amen
