Dear God,
Promise to look over me as I grieve,
Bless me as I let out another heave.
Haven't I looked up in gratitude and relief?
In those moments of mirth so brief?
Now, I don’t ask you to relieve me of despair,
Instead, bestow upon me the strength to bear,
Lest I am bereaved of my self, morrow,
As I wade through this overwhelming sorrow.
Equip me with determination, as I set out to conquer my insecurities and fears,
Can you at least imagine my plight, when I can’t even summon my tears?
So, Dear God, Promise to look over me as I grieve,
Bless me as I let out another heave.
