A cry for help

A cry for help

Lord I can’t do it anymore

I’ve tried – I’m trying

But it is too much

I am failing

Trying to keep it together

Trying to do and be good

Trying to help

Maybe I’m just being trying

With all the clever wise words

That accomplishes nothing

All the good intentions

Which vanish like a mist

Who am I – what am I?

When I think I have it together

I am confused with fragments

When I think I understand

My logic falters and fails

When I think I love

My heart ends up bleeding

Oh where am I my Lord?

Only you can hold me together

Wherever, whatever that is

Only You, Lord, know my true heart

And yet you love me still

Thank you.
