Please Be My Friend

I’m torn apart inside
Misery lies in wait,
And what is my fate?

God, I need You more than ever,
I’m so sorry for anything I’ve done
I can’t take all this pettiness of life,
Friendships fall apart,
I begin to lose heart,
I’m sick of it, Literally…
I could be sick, in wretchedness
I could vomit against time…
May I ask this question? What was my crime?
Am I really blind?

All I did was be a friend,
And now I’m beginning to be alone,
All I did was offer a listening ear,
And a shoulder when needed…
And yet I have no one to go to…

Jesus, I know I’m unworthy
But I ask You to be my Friend,
Only You can give love,
That will never end…
And I want that, but I need it too,
I love You despite myself
Shelter me in Your arms
Fight these enemies that surround me,
Please I need You now.
