Nothing Left

By the bed side I kneel to pray Not quite certain just how to say I haven’t the courage to see this through No longer can I be the one they turn to The weight of the burden overwhelms me In my mind in my heart I yearn to be set free I've prayed for strength know this is true Yet there is not a soul to help me through Days turn in to weeks slowly slipping by Neither a visit a call nor a shoulder on which to cry Life treasures have faded into emptiness I kneel asking to be taken into god's caress Nothing left for me in this earthly space I pray you'll lift me into thy forgiving embrace
