Eyes closed
Prayer hands in formation
Seeking forgiveness and the benefit of the doubt
Rarely granted to creatures like myself
Resisting tension stout
Whats this all about
Your guess is as good as mine
Line by line is borrowed time
Intersected as the common thread
Which binds us all to be better beings
With faith placed in beings not seen
The essence seems evanescent
Though we consisently participate in the silent act
An abstract derivative connects to virtues of the youth
Committed into adulthood as proof
There is something greater than all of us
Stand tall and rejoice
Tears stream from my eyes
Head tilted towards the sky
Praise the heavens with your voice
Thank God
Thank God
Thank God
