Answered Prayers

Answered Prayers

I have offered them up from dirty restrooms

In my darkest hours

On the coldest days

From hospital beds curled up crying in a ball

All I could do was pray

Some prayers I had time to gift wrap

Shiny paper, a big red bow

More often sweaty palms clasped

Together

I was crawling in darkness, it felt like forever

God parted the sea and he made me smile

We are talking about miracles here

It seems my deepest prayers

Have been answered

My way forward is clear
