A Teenager's Prayer

Member since 2005 · Posted 8 Oct 2005 · 1 comment

Temptations are knocking there outside my door. Lend me the strength to keep my feet on the floor. Don't let me surrender my life for nothing more than a thrill. Show me a friend that doesn't come in a pill. Chase away the people that tell me nothing but lies. Help me to remember when I was nine. Don't let my body inject and surrender my soul. Don't want the poison that's smoked in a bowl. Don't let me jump only they tell me I can fly. My life's barely started... Please help me... I'm not ready to die.
