Dear Lord

*work in progress   

Please Lord just give this to me.

I've been good haven't I?

What is it that you choose to see?

With your beady little eye.

For surely by now must be my time?

After all that I've been through.

For years I waited patiently in line.

To myself always been true.

More careful perhaps I could have tread. 

May have allowed the lines to become blurred.

Blinkered from the way a head.

The side of caution I could have erred.

        Oh lord I ask the chance to be the best that I can be.

        Just give me that, I'll show them all, just you wait and see!
