Dear God, <br />I tried to talk to you in a different way. <br />But I think the Christian Prayer Messaging <br />Isn't working for me. <br />So now I hope you're reading this letter <br />Over my stooped shoulder, <br />Because I don't know how to get this letter to you. <br /> <br />God, I think that you are disappearing <br />From my view that is already so blurred. <br />I can't hear the reassuring voice telling <br />Me to keep moving forward. <br />Truthfully, it scares me to say it. <br />Maybe blurred vision plagues me? <br /> <br />God, I lost the track of life I used to <br />Live by. <br />Bitterness is now the path I walk upon <br />On this very sullen, ash-colored morning. <br />Destruction lies upon this path, <br />Chaos is all I hear. <br />Will you turn me into a bird, so I can fly far away <br />From this once upon a nightmare? <br /> <br />God, my faith in you is fading <br />Before me. <br />The presence of you by my side <br />Where you used to stand is now <br />Vacant. <br />Did you finally give up on me, <br />The basket case? <br /> <br />God, please give me a sign to <br />Reassure me that you are <br />Very much present <br />At my side. <br />Instill faith in me once again <br />As I believed in before. <br />Stray me away from the path <br />Of bitterness and despair. <br />Have me be rid of this <br />Blurred life. <br />Convince me you have never left <br />My side, only quieted your <br />Advice.<br /><br />Melissa Joy Chesky<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-letter-to-god-4/
