An Answered Prayer
By: Me

They say when one door shuts another one opens,
But here I stand, alone,
looking out a closed glass door.
It won’t open, it’s stuck.

Yet I pound on it hoping someone will hear.
But I guess this door is sound proof too,
Because nobody seems to notice,
Nobody seems to care.

Is this glass only one way because I can see you,
But can you see me??
Can you see that I need you??
Need you to save me??

I’m stuck in this small closed room,
With just a glass door to see outside.
Outside where the sun shines,
Every one is going on with their normal lives.

But here I am stuck, alone.
The room is getting smaller now.
It’s getting harder to breathe…
I keep pounding but it does no good.

I’m trying to call out for help,
Can’t you see??
But you just keep going on with your life,
Don’t worry about me.

The nice sunshine is right there,
I can see it perfectly clear.
But here I stand,
About to disappear.

As I take my last breaths,
I look for another door,
Hope when I need it the most,
Yet there is nothing here.

So just remember this…
I tried.
I pounded on that door,
Yet no one came.

I stayed there
for as long as I could,
But no one had came,
Like they had should.

I’m sorry
That this had to happen this way
But now that my time here is ending
I see the light of a great new day.

Yes there is the gate to heaven,
Yes it’s right over there.
I found a new door to go to
Finally an answer to my prayer.
