Prayer

I went to sleep last night
Praying for a sign

As to why
This is all happening

I don't pray much anymore
Because I prayed that you would stay

With a desperation that
Even in my darkest moments

I have never
Come close to knowing

I poured out my heart
With every word

Just as I prayed for you
And about you

Thinking about you
Thanking Him for you

But you still left me
Alone with those prayers

You had become my reason
To pray, to live

You kept my faith alive
In everything

And now I feel as though
I have nothing to believe in

I guess it's all part
Of that catch 22

That you've turned
My life into

Prayer is all I have left without you
But without you, I can't bring myself to my knees
