Parting Scars

Clasping my hands, I air a prayer Beg for forgiveness, with no one there Falling to knees, crosses dangle from throat Feeling warmth, provided by an invisible coat Safely and securely, I lie humbled in bed Thanking the lord for all the blood he has shed Careful not to take advantage of endless wish lists My scars fully fade on my porcelain wrists Conversing dreams of passion and hope Weary not to fall victim to life's atrope When I feel no one is listening That no one cares I feel the clouds part Revealing my fully answered prayers
