Pray Breathe Read

Why can't you understand
it keeps showing up in black in white
I don't want to be a preacher to you
This has always been my life
I'm trying to teach it to you
I've fallen off
I'm ashamed
Why can't you meet me on the other side?
I don't want to lose you
I don't want to have to walk away
These summer months speak a lot
please try to understand
all my prayers are being answered
I hope you're seeing them too
Pray. Breathe. Read.
