familiar prayer
deep breaths as the life drains like blood
down my arms
out my heart and onto granite floor
in familiar environment
same light, same room, same people
deep breathes as they speak to me
feeding insecurity
doubt and shame, pain too familiar
the need to breathe fuels the need to get out
"Lord, take me out of here"
i've breathed too many times
a prayer i've made my own,
my familiar prayer.
