Whispering Prayers
Whispering to the beings that
are higher than her
asking for one simple thing
asking for her life to be
made so much simpler.
Begging for something to
give to ease the pain
that she has been feeling.
Whispering her prayers for
understanding and for hope
wishing for the eyes to
open up and see her
instead of just looking
through her as if she
doesn’t really exist at all.
Wanting them to look up
and see what has been
right there in front
of them all along.
Waiting for the pain to
pass and for everything
to resolve itself in time.
Whispering prayers of
understanding and hope.
Wishing for things to be
made clearer in time.
