Last night I prayed so hard to God
In my despair I cried I sobbed
I did not want to see the day
Knowing it will be sad and gray
I could not see why I should live
When there is none for me to give
Neither is there love to receive
Even myself I can’t deceive
I wished for sleep to take over me
Forget the problems that now face me
I need the break from all exhaustion
There is no answer to any question
Has my lost love forgotten all?
The times shared that were wonderful?
The moments when love did prevail
Were they not true? Were they unreal?
If feelings were truly sincere
They couldn’t quickly disappear
Unless it is the work of evil
Committing sin is not a thrill
It’s not implied that we both sinned
But to the end our values thinned
Temptation found its victory
What’s left of us is misery
Somehow you are too blind to see
Dishonesty can’t make you happy
Reality will dawn on you
Some things aren’t worth losing what’s true
With God nothing is ever hopeless
Never too late to fix a mess
We’re not too old to change ourselves
That chance to try we do deserve
But then there are others involved
Who dictate what should be resolved
Decisions made are not our own
They often depend on that other person
If words and actions were truly ours
We could allow more tolerance
One person's right we won't deny
For someone else we will not lie
Therefore it’s sad that we give in
To our weakness and earthly things
We sacrifice what is important
For what is fleeting and inconsistent
Is there hope then for us to learn?
The value of morals within?
Commitment to the family
Gives us real joy eternally
