This body needs a break,
heart muscle beaten down,
went tragedy from risk,
made hatred from adoring gaze.
Thought I'd spared his life,
turns out he a casualty.
Enemies all around,
light life flew far away.
Now grief builds in my center,
hardly a breath can leave my chest.
Love lost, never gained, all options just shut down.
Only God can heal this pain.
