O God, Why hast thou Forsaken me?
I fell to my knees
I felt the subtle October breeze
"Please God, save her. Ill quit the drink and drugs. Just save her. I'll devote my life to you. Just save her. Take me instead"
Thoughts in my head, praying.
Gentle cries of anguish beside me.
I lift my head, hopeful.
God is good, God is strong.
God is Wise.
Is he not?
She lay before me, bloody.
Wounded, unconscious.
Victim of a tragic mistake.
One life for another.
God please save her.
My friend, my lover.
Time stood still, the sun set.
Her life faded.
Why God , why.
My faith crushed.
My heart broken.
One tragic mistake.
Why God, why.
My tears have run dry.
My heart cold, turn to stone.
God has not forsaken me.
I have forsaken God .
