Christina Beckwith Poems

I cry, but the tears dont even stay by my side.
Sometimes I feel like I am all alone, and I have no help fighting of the cold.
But Lord I know you're here, what do I do to break this mold?
What do I have to hold, the memories, the use to be's, or the part of me I wish to be.
...

Lord let me sleep in peace.
So I may wake in your grace.
Help me get through my days, knowing you're with me all the way.
I know I can not trust in anything but you, Lord help me find friends that will always be true.
...

I close my eyes,
and try to picture a perfect world, i try to drift into it, but the chains around my neck keep strong hold, so lead me and I'll follow.
You tell me waht you want from me,
you take me where you want to go.
...

A friend saved me today;
She told me that she would pray;
It wasnt much to ask; she had helped my many times in the past;
The memories of these times will last;
