A SHORT PRAYER
I'm scared of what it means exactly - "Bring me to my knees" I want to look back at thirty And be proud of what I did with my life at twenty-five, Of what I did for You before twenty - five. I don't know if I want what You want for me. But God, Don't let me wander too far, Too far away from You And from the future you wrote Concerning me when I was forming In my mother's womb. Please tell me I can become What You want me to be. I am telling You to bring me to my knees And yet I think I may not like what it means. Amu Mawutoh, 31st August, 2016. @8:20
