Weary Soul

Yes ,yes I was a precious soul
Turned to a flower that's slowly decaying
My roots are dead and gone
Can only draw waters when I'm praying 

The stars allign enough to keep me breathing
but never enough to keep me away from grieving
I'm a question mark in motion when it comes to 
the act of living
Sometimes wishing to silence my cardiac rhythm 

God's absence is like a faded sunray
The dying little light that saw me through dark day
Oh lord,sinner as I am in my life please stay 

They ask who did I lose ,why am I grieving
I lost the only thing I had hope
Entangled to a downward facing slope 
Of which I wish to climb 
Just for the world to witness that I'm a dime
Yes I'm lonely,but undeserved attention is a crime

So I'll wait on God to renew my weary soul 
Make the flower precious again 
Return it to its original Image
Restore the hope I lost
