I walked through the front door
Just got home
The only thing on my mind is you
As I start to feel sore

You are at home feeling sick
That takes away my ability to think
Asking God to give me all your pain
I’m certain I’m going insane

The world seems like it is crashing
Like an earthquake, my world is shaking
I am trying to keep my calm
But all my pieces begin to crumble down

I am standing naked in shower
The water is hot, but I feel cold
Every minute passing by feels like an hour
Prayers work when nothing does, I’ve been told

I continue to choke on my own breath
My phone rings and I get a text
I see your name, feel a sense of relief
You tell me you’re feeling better
So now I can finally breathe

I was standing naked in the shower
The water was hot, yet I was cold
Every minute passing by felt like an hour
I’m guessing prayers do work, I’m sold
I wrote this when my loved one was feeling sick.
