Another Dear God Prayer…

by Jordan   Jun 5, 2005


Dear God,

Yesterday was good
Then today went down the drain
Smiles faded to frowns
Laughter turned to pain

Mom and me had another fight
I don’t know how much more that I can take
How many more times will I do this
How much longer can I fake?

Dad “forgot” to call again
“He had other things to do”
Grandma stuck up for him
More tears I had been put through

School is coming to an end
I guess I should be all right
But it’s the only reason I get up in the morning
Then go to sleep again at night

So now what’s going to be my reason
To live life each and everyday?
What’s going to be my reason
To greet mornings my own way

When will I live peacefully?
In a happy medium
When I’ll be able to smile
And good things will finally come?

One day that I smile
Make 10 more days that I cry
One day full of laughter
Makes me continue to ask you why

Why was I put here dear God?
To suffer from all this pain
Sure it’s not physical-
Yet it hurts all the same

Why do I live life
The way I continue to do
When will my suffering
Finally be through?

I ask you to answer all this questions
Dear God, please help me here
Because I have no strength left to fight
I can’t even hold back my tears

I have given up in many ways
I hope today’s my last to live
I have no more to look forward too
Nothing left to give

So please dear God help me out
Just send me a sweet friend
A little guardian angel
That will be with me to the end

***Today was a reallllly bad day. Thanks for reading...***

    Hey!! I Loved this poem. I had a REALLY bad day today. Lets just say all my friends left me for a rumor about me. Sweetie, you have to stay strong. It's moments like this you know who your friends are. You can always count that ppl will be there. I will be there and i'm sure you have others much closer to you to turn to

    I so sorry that you're feeling crap again, your poem yesterday was so positive
    I guess you just have to hold onto the fact that hopefully soon the good days will get more frequent, but I know what you're going through I'm pretty much the same, I also loved the bit about your 'pain not being physical yet it hurts all the same' coz I can totally relate to it
    your a great poet and I hope writing helps
    love anna

    Awww, I love this poem with a passion! It's so my life last year... You will get through it, I promise. I loved these lines "Why was I put here dear God?
    To suffer from all this pain
    Sure it’s not physical-
    Yet it hurts all the same" I know exactly how you feel! Keep up the awesome work!! You are one of my favourite poets on this website!! Good job!
