MY PRAYERS

In this little building sitting on my own
In this tiny house sitting all alone
Then you come and try to see
Then you come and try to get
As close as you can be to me

You have come from far away
I try to push you back to that place
But you won’t take a step or even turn around
So I look at you and try hard not to frown

My hearts been broken too many times to count
Even on two hands you can’t add up the amount
My heart is not for you to mend
I want you to, but you’re only a slight friend

You’re always there to comfort
Always there to talk
But the times I really need you
You always turn and walk

I pretend you’re not there
That you were just one of my prayers
But you are real
Yet you’re so surreal
