Hear Me Lord Poem by Frank Acquafredda

I stare death in the face

My heart filled with pain.

More blood has been shed

Throughout life in your name.

So when is the time lord

For your day to come,

This cruel world of ours

I know that I'm done.

That garden of fruit

I have searched, but can't find.

Forever my faith tested

My life In rewind

For that innocence lost

In my world left behind

When life seemed so peaceful

And happy thoughts filled my mind.

With my candle of hope

Its flame almost out

As I pray to your name

Once again there is doubt.

With my blood at a boil

As I scream and yell

Could it be I'm already dead?

And living life now in hell.

So if I am wrong lord

And this is not true

Your guidance from above

My life to get through

Once again I am lost

And my trust is in you

My fate is in your hands

What my life to do.
