I Prayed

This depression, got me down; Seems like no one cares, no ones around; Feeling, sad and so blue; Seems like, I don't have you; Lord, I don't have, have you; I prayed just prayed and still have no way to show for what you have said so over and over again. . . I pray I just found out; I began having doubts; My mind it's clout? ? ? What am I doing that's. . . . what's wrong with you God Do you hear me calling you, Lord; What am I to do OH!! so I repent of myself, and just held myself and I, I, just... I prayed just prayed and still have no way to show for what you have said, what you do or did; so over and over again. . . I just prayed All I ever needed is a forgiving someone; And a love of mine own; so I stop sheading these tears I'm crying; Need to stand up and be a Godly man(woman); so I prayed just prayed and still prayed forever and a day Lord, God I'll let you have your way in my life come here do what you do what's may cause all I want to do is just Pray And I fell on my knees; And cried out to the Lord please; Please save me, save me, save me; so I prayed just prayed and still good God almighty I am entitled to pray and stay in the will of His and be one of many child's so I fall on my knees over and o'ver agin and just Pray I close my eyes with a sincere heart; myself bleeds and I stay in His presents; He embraces me caress me forgiving me He engulfs me in His agape love; and I prayed and I prayed and I prayed and asked for forgiveness each and every second, minute, hour, morning, noon, night, (always) and I prayed just prayed and I prayed for the answers and I prayed for blessings; and I prayed for longevity; and I prayed to be with Him, forever in Heaven; and I prayed for you; will you pray for me to; May God bless those that read these words; so I prayed for your life and I prayed that everything will be alright and I prayed for all mankind and when things get you down and no one seems to care just go inside your closet and stay.. just pray this I pray and I prayed Written by James Edward Lee Sr. June 21 2017(c) From the forth coming anthology "Really" 2017(c)
