Dear God
Dear God,
Right now I am having some problems,
I look for a rightful place amongst my kindred,
And I cannot seem to find one,
I don't speak, or think, or be,
Like my brothers that I see,
I'm young and yet this weight is so heavy,
I am so tired and yet my life is fairly easy,
But I cannot escape my eyes and heart, that every day they say in this form I do
not beling,
I wish to leave and join your everlasting,
My problems are so trivial compared to others in your flock,
But God I am weak and it is so hard to stand,
A man.
But just keep walking with me.
If you do, I'll make it through,
This labyrinth to you.
