Lament - Rebecca Evert

[Larry Robinson]

Lament

 

(The function of prayer is not to influence God, but rather to change the nature of the one who prays.)            

													 Soren Kierkegarrd


How do you pray 

Who do you pray to 

What do you pray for 

 
Questions asked 

Answers unknown or unheard

This wondering

This wandering

This labyrinthian life 

 
Wanting to feel each footstep

Leave an imprint on the earth

 
Left with no choice 

Turning again and again

 
I keep walking  

 
Because at this moment

This is the only way 

 
I know how to pray
