Dear Lord, The High Almighty

Dear Lord, the high almighty
I'm not sure your really there
But now I need more than ever
For you to listen to my prayer

I've never asked for help before
Selfish that's not me
There are so many people suffering
Who need for you to be

But now its must be me who asks
A hand to help me heel
I need for you to help me let go
Of everything I feel

I don't want to remember
The smile on his face
The tender affection from his lips
The warmth of his embrace

Laughing, joking, playing
The happiest Ive ever been
The feeling that Ive woken up
But still living in a dream

The times we spent together
Or the longing when apart
The rawest kind of passion
That entraps my broken heart

But now that its over
I live in memory
Trapped in time that does not move
Of things to never be

I'm growing dust and aging
Hes turned my heart so cold
I'm clinging on to emptiness
Theres nothing left to hold

I long to see the light again
To break the frozen cage
To dance so free and careless
Far away from this rage

But here Ill live forever
While I remember yet
So lord, the high almighty
Please help me to forget.
