Silent Prayers

In the darkness, no one by my side
Whispered every broken piece of my soul
But the silence filled the empty whole
I reached out, hoping you'd pull me in
But all I found was the weight within
Fading echoes, no one there to hold
Just a shadow growing cold
I was praying, calling out your name
But my cries just vanished like the rain
I begged and pleaded, down on the floor
But my voice didn’t reach you anymore
I’ve counted stars, traced each line
Looking for answers, a single sign
But faith slipped like sand from my hands
Left me stranded in no man's land
You were supposed to be the light in the dark
But all I found was an empty spark
Lost in the quiet, searching for grace
But all I found was an empty space
I was praying, calling out your name
But my cries just vanished like the rain
I begged and pleaded, down on the floor
But my voice didn’t reach you anymore
I gave it all, heart and bone
But in the silence, I’m alone
The faith I held is slipping through
Left wondering if it was ever true
Now I walk with shadows as my guide
Lost in a world I can’t abide
If you’re out there, can you hear my plea?
