a prayer of rage + lament

God,

Hear our cries.

When Death comes like a thief

And the sun still shines outside

So brightly it hurts

God,

Be with us.

We go from rage to disbelief and back again

The only signs a trembling of our jaws,

A clenching of our hands

God,

Are You listening?

Here we lie

Broken and bleeding

And time does not stop

Silence
