Dear Lord,
I’ve been a mess,
I’ve been praying less,
I’ve been doing awful things in secret
And occasionally I regret it.
I fear facing myself in the mirror
Coz every time I look at myself I see the errors
I see that monster,
Lord, I see the burster.
I can’t help feeling this way,
I can’t stop thinking what I think,
Sometimes, I don’t even know what to say
And every time I feel like I’m sinking.
I did a lot of wrongs in the past,
I did break the fast
And I convinced myself that I wasn’t the first,
I messed up even when I knew it was a curse.
I didn’t seem to be bothered,
Acted normal like it was better,
Repeated the mistakes as I got older
Even when I knew I’d be tortured.
My apologies for being shy
Couldn’t have the guts to come out
Didn’t even care to look up at the sky,
And just like chicken, I kept on wondering about it.
Forgive me I messed up,
I know my apologies my not cover the mistakes
But I can’t go down like this, for your sake,
Please help me pull myself up.
