I prayed that you find hope inside disaster
I prayed that if disaster struck
at least maybe you learn from the inevidable
I prayed for the power to protect you
I prayed to forgiven; I failed
I prayed that I would stop worshiping you as if you hailed from the sky
I prayed to those unknown deities
I prayed they would stop taunting me with you
I prayed that maybe I would stop making wishes for you
I prayed that I would not care as much about you
I prayed that angles would stop playing tricks
I prayed their soft tongues and laughing frames would stop placing their creations upon my path like golden gifts on display
but I am on my knees and sitting still
praying that I would stop worshiping you
(you are a blessing
that I've been condemned to)
amen
