Prayer

In hushed whispers or a heartfelt plea,
Prayer, a bridge unseen, yet meant to be.
It floats on faith, a silent, feathered thing,
To unseen ears, a message it can bring.

No padlock holds, no distance can confine,
It slips through walls, a lifeline so divine.
In sorrow’s depths, a flicker in the night,
A spark of hope, a gentle, guiding light.

For burdens shared are lighter, that is true,
But whispered prayers can mend a heart in two.
It fills the soul with whispered, calming grace,
A quiet strength to find a better space.

It holds no form, no color, nor a sound,
Yet in its wake, a peace can be found.
Like magic blooms, where worries used to cling,
A fragile hope, on whispered prayer’s wing.

So let it rise, this magic yet unseen,
A whispered word, a silent, trusting dream.
For prayer’s soft touch, though subtle and unknown,
Holds a power vast, to heal and make us whole.

Drama No More

I’ve learned to let the drama go,
To not sweat the small stuff.
I’ve learned to let life happen,
To flow with the current.

I’ve learned to not take things personally,
To not let words get to me.
I’ve learned to let go of control,
To let life unfold as it should.

I’m not perfect, I still get caught up in the drama sometimes.
But I’m learning to let go,
To let life happen.

It’s not always easy,
But it’s worth it.
When I let go of the drama,
I feel lighter, freer.

I can focus on the good things in life,
On the things that matter.
I can enjoy the moment,
And not worry about what’s coming next.

So if you’re feeling weighed down by drama,
I encourage you to let it go.
Let life happen,
And enjoy the ride.

Life is too short to waste time on drama.
There are so many amazing things to experience,
So many wonderful people to meet.

Don’t let drama get in the way of your happiness.
Let go, and let life happen.
