Imprints and Impressions

Loving God, free me of fear, free me of guilt,
Free me of pointless obsessions
Help others forgive me and remember me for something good,
Help me be better, much better.

Punish me for my wrong, so that I may not inflict more poison
Help me keep my head up and spirits high, and never let me sigh.
Help me be myself, and guide me in every word I utter,
Help me to let live, and sometimes, let go.

Help me to understand loneliness as a companion,
and pain as a poignant melody.
Help me sometimes, to feel reality as fantasy, and fantasy as a sweet reality...
Give fire to deserving impulses, and wings to the most beautiful dreams.

Help me put a smile on one new face a day,
and with each smile, let a dream blossom.
Help me strengthten my intuitions, and broaden my perceptions
Don't let any bad thought freeze for a moment, or a good feeling flow too quickly.

Help me find pleasure in the simple things of life,
Help me trust in myself completely, and be an inspiration
Don't let me break any promise, or any heart,
Never let me die ashamed, guilty or unforgiven...
