A Fool's Prayer

every single morning 

as I bow my head to pray, 

I thank the Lord 

for love 

for life 

& for another day 

 

I ask for an abundance of strength & patience 

to carry me on my way  

 

I pray His safe embrace is a home for those I love to stay 

 

but as I bow my head today, 

I pray for something new 

 

I pray to God my heart will never break again for you 

 

please know deep down, 

I’ll always love you,

because love is what I do 

 

but I fear I won’t have enough love left for me, 

if I give all my loving to you
