Prayer for a Lost Soul: To speak in tongues of AWESOME

Prayer for a lost soul

My words are so carefully conjugated

Flowing through my mind as though once constipated

Leaving hurt and destruction, yes, they have demonstrated

True effects of choices made wrong, but instigated

Searching to find truth among lies told, from both young and old

This world is just turning out to be too cold

Empowered by the right question

Answers investigated in the wrong places

And trusting innocent faces

Or so they seem

---

I’m lost in the struggle to break into reality

Coz there’s only one answer not so plain to see

Show me the answer and let me breathe

Show me the hope I lost to the desire of what’s around

Show me the way to peace

---

My heart is done; it’s almost out of beats

But should my heart not beat while I have been beat

Then let me start over and let’s call that a dream

Time is running out but I have to make things right

I have to let go of wrong, find right, and hold on tight

Afraid to make the choice but with you, I know I am right

And the only way to be right

Is to release myself at your feet

---

So here I am once again

Broken beyond repair

Be the glue to make me brand new

Arise I will as you grow in me

Fill every cell in me like it’s osmosis

Take control and erase the neurosis

Break the bonds of slavery to this world

And let us arise as one; mind, body and soul

And through me, speak in tongues of AWESOME

Amen.
