My Prayer

by BlueEyedMystery   Jun 9, 2006


I know i've strayed away from you,
I've been doing things that I normally wouldn't,
I've turned to everyone else to help me,
When all I needed was to turn to you,
These past few years have gone downhill,
I've changed from the sweet girl I once was,
But i'm tired of falling deeper and deeper,
Into this dark hole where i'm lost and cold,
I want to be saved by you,
And be the good child I once was,
I'm kneeling by my bed,
My hands clasped together,
Eyes closed and head bowed,
I'm asking for forgivness,
Please God, cleanse me of my sins,
I'm sorry I turned away from you,
I promise I will never do it again,
Amen.

    It still captures a deep essence even while it's short. There's a bit of desperation for God to listen, and to take your words. I liked the speaker's voice in the poem, and maybe it's personal? It was very well done, kudos.

    This is by far my favorite. Nothing special. BUt a strong message. And Im sure everyone that is a beleive can relate. Very good I love it. We need more about our Faith in God.

    I loved the way it was not yet clear it was god you were writing about until the end.

    some lines seemed to rhyme, but others not. a bit confusing.

    a very sweet poem

    I loved this. Trust me I know how you feel.. I could relate to practically every line in this poem and it's one of the most horrible feelings, but God is always there.. even if it seems He isn't.. I love the emotion in this poem. The flow and everything was really good. Keep it up!
    Take Care and God Bless,
