Worth the While

Rosanna Krich

Lost and deserted in this world so complete
There's no use trying when in the end its just repeat
I thought I could handle what's going down
Seems my shoulders can't bear nothin around
As my head points to the sky
The famous question of how can this be and why?
How could I have lost what I hold so dear
Building inside emotions of anger and fear
I have no idea where to go
Who to say yes to, and who to say no
My trust thrown into you
Please be faithful and true
But how can I ask for what's not mine?
Look at and disrespected like a crime
Open up & let go deems me hurt
Maybe my time has to come to convert
Back to the safety and happiness I once had
Even if my life seemed trashy and bad
I had respect and love
What my life at this moment has no completion of
Intelligence measured by the A B C's
Elders who are deemed unpleased
No more thank-yous or please
Good things somehow begin to cease
Friends lost and enemies found
I will not have thoughts wrapped up and bound
I said the prayer, I prayed what I said
Cannot question uncertainties in my head
So, God for now I'll stop here
No matter the toughness to bear
Because I said the prayer and I prayed what I said
Hopefully God answered and this is where I am led
If this is true, God's answer to me
Then all of it is worthwhile, thankfully
