Evening Drifts Away

As the day comes to an end
Giving my spirit a chance to mend
Allowing my mind to rest
Having taken life’s latest test

I begin to reflect upon my day
Most often when I begin to pray
Hearing the words that have been said
As they echo throughout my head

Seeing every action I have taken
O Lord, why have I forsaken
As my eyes begin to close
For these answers only God knows

So as my mind drifts away
And life has less and less to say
It is once again just the mind and heart
Getting ready for the next day to start
