My Plea

Up, down, and all around
I've been looking all day
But my sanity is no where to be found
There's so much I have to say
But the words won't come, to my dismay

So isolated, feeling cut off from those I love
Frustrated and just at my wits end
Crying, I look to the Lord above
To my angry heart, please attend
Peace and tranquility, do send

It's become so difficult to undertake the task
I know I'm the only one who is here for her each day
But all that's now required is becoming too much to ask
Please Lord, help me before I lose my way
Renew my strength, give me the patience somehow I pray

The anger builds and sometimes I yell
The waves crash hard and throw me into the harsh sea
I know it's not her fault, that much I can tell
But sometimes it's just too much for only me
Take away the bitterness, please set me free

Wrap me up in your love, hear my plea
Remind me I'm not going through this alone
Show me who I am meant to be
And surround me with the friends I've known
The ones who have stood be me as I've grown

Together we've stood through many dark days
Weathering every storm, finding ways to dance in the rain
Then laughing when the sun comes out and basking in its warm rays
Thanking You I do for bringing us together and healing every pain
In the end, You helped me overcome every hurt, heartache, and strain

So again I ask You
Help me get through this, I feel so weak
I need love that's true
Here I stand, humble and meek
Give me the strength, wisdom, and love that I seek
