Constance La France Poet Kyrielle

Teach Me To Be Stronger God

I began life pure and guiltless,
a girl innocent and faultless;
as I grew my soul became flawed.
Oh, teach me to be stronger God ! 

My young soul began to have cracks,
it is full of fractures and gaps;
from pits of sorrow I have clawed.
Oh, teach me to be stronger God !

This life gone awry and amiss,
oh could you please, please press a kiss;
I am weary of this façade.
Oh, teach me to be stronger God !

Each day, moment I am falling,
I am damaged, broken, weeping;
from chains of the past I have crawled,
Oh, teach me to be stronger God !

But deep inside there is a strength,
in this faulty soul's depth and length;
I am weakness and strength, how odd.
Oh, teach me to be stronger God !
