A prayer for you

My mother told me to not give my heart so young

That I wasn't like the other young ladies

 I grew up with in school

That I was supposed to achieve a lot more

How was I to know I would find you

And that you would take my hand

And show me a whole new world?

But now that I have lost you

 By my own undoing

 I want you to heal

And even though I am no longer yours

I want to help you

Somehow anyhow with words

 With silence, even in my absence

I want you to have the best the world can offer

I want you to have the rains that you love,

And the little things that make you happy

I hope you can find solace in them,

In your movies and your music

I don't have anything else to offer you

Except a prayer for you.
