Untitled Work

Do you hear me out there?
Or are my prayers falling on deaf ears?
Do you even care?
I feel so lost in this despair, this desolation
Don't you see me down here?
Deep down I feel the defeat of my own thoughts in the
dawn
Sometimes I wonder why I worry so damn much about the
ones I hold so dear,
I have no control over this kind of thing
I only wish I did
If I could I would take this disease from you
Erase all your pain and sorrow
End this terrible thing that is slowly wrecking your
life and mine
But I can't
I can't change what happens in my life or yours
Sometimes I wonder if it's even worth going on,
Then I realize that you are here and that alone keeps
me from falling too far into this despair
Do you hear me out there?
Or are my prayers falling on deaf ears?
But who knows, perhaps deep down, you really do care.
