Dear God
if happiness is not for me to feel
let me give it to someone else
if I can’t,
let them!
you know, I come here
every year
hunting
searching
what am I looking for
you made me
as I am
my mind
is what it is
I will try
if I can’t die
then I will stay
and continue to pray
that one day
I can do what’s right
and then
maybe,
I’ll make it
I’ll try not to fake it
to do your will is what I want
I pray
and you hear
don’t let me fail
and I will succeed
I know that’s dumb
but God
you know
what I mean
all this
I ask
in your name
I pray
-amen

David
