Oh god why I am so afraid
To tap into the breathing of my lungs
And see that they are not functional
When I shy from you
I do not understand it
Why can’t I pray?
Where does my heart go
What has blackened my vision
So that all I sense is fear
Lord although I need you
Still I am anxious
To be free in my expression
Release me from this cell
Comfort my aches
So that I may be whole
