The Strength Prayer
The nameless and formless-
endow me with enough strength
to deal with this ‘self’
To keep my eyes open always
For seeing myself,
To hold my thoughts
like heart-holds breath
To watch my deeds,
To listen to my words
To make me see the darkness
However scary it is,
To bless me with honesty,
for you, me, and them
Each passing moment
May I sing your hymn,
In all the pain and tickles,
There be smile and shine.
