The request

Dear God, who art in heaven
For all I have I'm blessed
Forgive your thankful sinner
And awknnoledge my request

For too much if I'm asking, God
Then just ignore this part
But if I am allowed to speak
I need a brand new heart

A heart that never hated me
A heart that doesn't love her
A heart that could fit all the things
I wish I would have told her

And this time make it out of stone
Not porcelain or glass
Just make sure that is soft and kind
not ignorant or crass

Please also fill it up with love
But not too much to handle
Enough to keep me warm at night
Not burn down like a candle

Since I'm alive and I can't die
And also cannot hold her
I'm begging for a different heart
Or strength to live and love her

I've prayed and waited for so long
If not now, God, then when
Forgive your small, impatient friend
I'll wait for You, Amen
