Prayer
I don't want to be
Alone
Again
In this black pit of fear
The shadows gnawing at me
Stealing away
My hope.

I want to reach out
And know you will hear
And accept what and where
I am.

I don't want to be
Besieged
In dreams
By swooping black cloaks
Which trap and enfold
This child inside.

I want to awaken
And know
I'm safe
Then, now and tomorrow
With no need to hide.

Please call out and say
my name
Please listen and hear
my fear
Please reach down and show
that you know
who I am.



Thank you Caroline for letting me share this ......
