A prayer, of sorts
Fill my mind with joyful thoughts
I’m so tired of heavy ones
Help me to connect the dots
Show me life can still be fun
Bring some light into my mind
Fill my heart with joyful thought
Help the tangle to unwind
So my core can feel less fraught
As I’m stuck here in this spot
Where the shadows crowd my sight
Fill my head with joyful thought
Bring to close this soul’s dark night
Here I sit at end of day
Weary from the battles fought
Help me now to find my way
Fill my mind with joyful thought

All the topics I could think of were depressing. So I wrote this instead.

A very good prayer for its buoyant rhyme and plea for the almighty to break in with his light.

I can tell you're a song writer, K.
Rhyming and rhythm are great here.
You're a natural.

Thanks so much, J, that's a really lovely compliment. Rhythm does come easy to me... rhyme needs a little more help. This was a really fun structure to work with - I think it's called a quatern?

Wonderful work Broken, great format. Nothing like a positive prayer/communication with the universe to bring about good things.
