Cosmic Phone Call

God... are you there?
Do you hear my prayer?
Do you see me when I sleep at night?
What are these things that bind me tight?
Nightmares crawling through my skin,
And this fear I bury deep within.
Do my words hold a subliminal message?
Or are they simply my life line through the wreckage?

God...Do you see me?
Or are you blind?
Can't you see that I'm not fine?
Scared and weak, no peace of mind.
Within these shadows, no light shines.
Should I leave a message after the beep?
Will you get back to me in my sleep?
Will you ignore it it and walk away?
Will you send some one to tell me it will all be okay?

When I cry out in vain
From the darkness and the pain.
Please hold my hand and call me back.
Fend off the Angels that attack.

Speak to me God.
Fer here I lie.
Bruised and broken,
Vanquished pride.
Inside I crack with every stride.
And with every tear,
I feel I've died.

God.. send me an Angel.
One with wings.
To kiss my tears and ease the stings.
And here he'll kneel by my side,
To bring me back if I do die.

God... I know yer there.
And you've gotten my prayer.
But yet, then, why is no one here.
Why am I alone?
Is this just one more message on yer cosmic phone?

                         . . .

                                    "Beep."

    I really like this one. Good emotion. I liked the lines:
    "Should I leave a message after the beep?
    Will you get back to me in my sleep?
    Will you ignore it it and walk away?
    Will you send some one to tell me it will all be okay?"

    If only there was a phone-line to a place called heaven we could call. The tape would probably have to keep rolling to infinity, though. Anyway, great write. I liked the title. Very creative.
