Prayer For An Angel
By Kim Hoelzer
(Contact: I3lopop25@aol.com)

Now I lay me down to sleep,
I pray God will hear my prayer.
Why does she hurt herself like she does?
Why is she so unfair?

She finds relief by cutting herself.
All it does is tear me apart.
Why can't she see how much she's loved,
and that this is breaking my heart?

Whenever she gets upset
she takes a razor to her wrist.
What if one day it slipped?
What if one day she missed?

I beg you to send an angel.
I'm like the blind trying to lead the blind.
I try to help her see the light.
I cry 'cause it's so hard to find.

Everytime I see them,
the cuts she inflicts on her own,
My heart wrenches-I feel like crying.
I can't handle this alone.

I love her so much.
She means the world to me.
But how can someone I need so much
be so unhappy?

If only an angel could come down to earth
and take away all her pain.
Lift her above all the clouds.
Shield her from the rain.

She was always the strong one.
The one I looked up to.
To me she was invincible.
Now look what she chooses to do.

I pray tonight for help
to make her be okay.
Please will you send an angel
to make this go away?
