Limbo


I've been falling to my knees, oh Lord

To ask for all the wrong things..

Praying to be taken out of this limbo

This existing, not living..

I haven't been very good at being alive

And never successful at asking to die.

I know I don't want to be so tired

And sick all the time..

I know I don't want to be a failure

Within myself, to my children

My family, my friends

To you, God

From the beginning to the end.

I'll look for the sweetness in life

Instead of swallowing it down

Like one of my bitter pills.

Oh Lord, help me climb this hill..

I'm trembling

My feet bloodied and my legs so worn.

Lord, please be there with me

As you give me the stength

To step aside

And out of this tortured state of limbo.
