A prayer to my father

Time has stood still 

The world has paused 

A never ending nightmare 

A standing ovation, a round of applause 

The earth has swallowed me whole

My words are lost

Uplift me from the ground lord 

Like you did her soul

Give me the strength to let go 

Hold my hand through the darkness 

Straighten my posture 

Cry with me lord 

Help me keep my faith within this torture 

Console me father, I’m your daughter 

Become my backbone and grant me safe passage 

Carry me when I can’t go on

Heal this damage 

When my doors are locked you will have the key 

Because tomorrow isn’t guaranteed
