Prayer
I don't know how to reach you
my darling
as you suffer & self-destruct
-- & so I turn to prayer.
I can't re-arrange this
I can't soften this
I can't solve this
--& so I turn to prayer.
How do I pray my darling?
Waves & waves of love,
waves & waves of forgiveness,
waves & waves of hope.
Oh may these waves reach you
my darling
& wash over you
with blessings fresh as the new morning.
My wishes dissipate in the wind
-- & so I turn to prayer.

You put that very well.
If you'll excuse me, it sounds very much like:
The Serenity Prayer.
God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
courage to change the things I can,
and wisdom to know the difference
I struggle daily to follow that advice.
