A prayer away from hell

Tue, 01/26/2016 - 21:50 -- j.s.m.w

And God I know I'm just a sinner one or two away from prayerBut please save me Help me be better Heal my heartache Save my pain for real rainy daysBecause if I'm left here crying for nothingI won't know how to react to the real thingNever know might let it seep through my fingers and slither away Just because he was a boy And I the girl Doesn't mean I end up tragically hurtThis isn't a tragedy This isn't Shakespeare I've said this time and time againThis is my redoFor myself to settle comfortably in my skin To be washed again Taken back whole I've already felt the cold Slip through my body No one could ever make redemption of my soul but me Now just watch me As I dance in the street and feel heat
