I Need You

Hold me as if I was weightless, take gravity's hands off my shoulders and just hold me for awhile

Shut out the rest of the world and give me a moment of peace

Rock me back and forth in your waters

Slow down time, slow my movements, slow the sounds that reach my ears

Wash me, clean me of all the filth I have picked up from the despicable deeds I have committed

Sing me a lullaby from your winds

Whisper sweet words of hope and compassion in my ear

Block out the harsh thoughts of cruelty that spew from demon lips

Warm me with the light from your sun

Melt away the shards of ice that pierce my heart

Give me the feeling of life once more

Shade me from the sight of others when the tears flow from me

Hide my weakness from a world that wishes to exploit it

Take away my vision, do not let me see the blood that seeps from the wounds to my heart

Give me a sturdy ground to hold me up when my knees are weak

Do not let me fall through the cracks

Hold me up when I cannot take another step

Support my burden when it threatens to crush me

I came from you, take me back into your arms when my time is up

When I have nothing more to give or gain from this life please let me sleep in your embrace

Please take me into you and recycle my life. Let my end be the beginning of another

That way I shall know that at least something good came from my life and my death

That my existence was beneficial to the world in some way

Hold me. Hug me. Give me the strength to simply be.

Mather Nature I need you
