My Prayer, My Confession

I try so hard to do the right thing

My trials are a painful, high winds

Rocking my ship amongst heavy drifts

As rays of sun burst through the clouds

Your light is upon me through the rifts


I just want to walk away

This wasn’t the plan I had

My heart is stone, a dead weight

A wall, blocking the flood of love

Your Son took my place, my fate


I sit, whining and complaining

Frustrated in this stupid poem

Just words of my self pity at a loss

A registered thought occurs

Where is my joy, is it with the Cross?


O Father! Have mercy on me!

For I know I wasn’t the one forsaken

Yet, sinfully, I’m impatient to your will

Death on the Cross, Your love for us!!

My life is the craft of your skill
