Father, I falter.

By Possesion

Father,
I pray that you hear me.

Falter,
God is not real read the headlines.

Father,
The pressure is cooking my soul to destruct.

Falter,
Foolish are those that find safety in false words.

Father,
I know I have not been true.

Falter,
No ones listening to you rambling in the dark.

Father,
But I am alone and I am afraid.

Falter,
If HE who you TRUST we're real,
Would you be in this situation?

Father,
Why didn't you save me when you had the chance?
It's done now,
I'm broken on his floor.
