I was tired, didn't want to start my day.
So I got up, but I didn't pray.
I don't know why--I didn't know what to say?
And then things happened, crazy stuff,
I guess I had, had enough!
Glass broken all around me,
tiny fragments as far as the eye could see!
"That was me, that was me!" I thought.
For years, a merciful God I had sought.
Tears on a floor and a body left sore,
don't recall what was it I had been fighting for?
An issue without a cause,
didn't take the time to pause.
Now the world knows what is wrong,
and my story is far too long.
They don't care, observers just stare.
How did I come so far to turn back,
how did I lose it--blow my stack?
What spiritual gift did I lack?
It can happen to us all,
one day stand tall
then like Humpty take a great fall.
It can happen late at night or in the middle of the day
that is why it is best you stop and pray!
