Dear Lord may my tears dry up like a raisin in the sun.
For I have gone many days with sorrow instead of fun.
At times my fears are so terrifying, I don't know if I should fight or run.
Is there a reason why I'm troubled
Or why the severity of each single problem
Gets doubled
Perhaps I need a stronger solution
Because these pills are not enough
I dream of a better day when times are not as tough.
The reason I enjoy sleep
Is because it is the only time I purposely fall
Although the reason above all
is because while I am sleep,
I do not shed a tear
And all that's foggy while I am awake.
Is suddenly so clear.
Dear Lord, all I want is happiness
Not a worry in my mind
And a chance to understand
Why I have been so blind.
