Taken Innocence; what if



Patience;
Taken
Learning from the mistaken
Evil in the world
Placed on a little girl
Unsanctionable cure it seems
Why on earth couldn't I be saved

From myself
From my pain
Why on earth do I have to live this way
Why can't I be God's child
Unbreakable I do pray
I am only as much as I can give and do
I pray and hope there is some cure

I ask for guidance and I am uncertain
I believe my hope and prayers turn up in...
But I float away to a world beyond
And I know there's not much of any human bond

Being of service, cool I guess
I appreciate people and the mistakes I make 
But I dont feel like life works for me
I try and I try and my dreams can't be
I wish for a world full of peace
And I am reminded light will always exist

Maybe I chose this life to live
Maybe I didn't now
Will something give
I want some power over this physical life
I tried and I lost out of spite

I'm not perfect and some none may understand
Being that I am woman 
And not a man

I understand Jesus they say knows and sees and can feel all
He has the power to heal
And given words so we barely should crawl
But I am crawling 
And I am walking
And for that I'm to be blessed
And I am I truely am

But im tired of living..... I feel the existing is more predominant
Because I'm left to myself 
Should I not or is there a balance
A place of hope would be living in a new place... unburdedened by the boundaries of financial waste

I live I dream I pray
I am not sure which way
Broken girl
Too little and too heard
Broken girl
God save me now

I hate feeling up and down
Heal my heart, erase the broken part
Show me what life would be like internally
If I had all of me
