My Prayer - Persephone

I don’t pray to be aware of all dangers

Let me face them without fear

I don’t pray for my pain to end

Let me bear it with all strength

I don’t pray to be invulnerable

Let my heart be open to forgive

I don’t pray for a saviour

Give me patience to wait 'til I’m free

But please stand beside me if I fall

Let me hold your warm hands

While mine get colder…
