I Stand And Pray Poem by Josie Hartnett

I stand and pray
To all the gods
To all who are here
To all that are near.
I ask them for help,
I ask them for
Forgiveness
For whatever i need.
I pray to god
To Allah
To Buddha
I call to
The earth
The sun
The moon
To whatever
Will help,
Whoever will care,
to help me through this painful time,
I rely on my
Pagan beliefs
Calling spirit,
Water, air, fire
And earth,
To me.
So far only one has helped.
Spirit has filled me
from the inside out.
And I know this
As I am no longer scared.
No longer empty.
I pray to the heavens and above,
And someone up there
Must be listening,
Because...
I am still alive.
