Middle of the Night
3:13
I can’t sleep
Visions so deep
Thoughts in between
Where’d we go wrong
A daughter lost
Help at any cost
Trying to remain strong
I can’t see why
Things are so inapt
How do we adapt
Before the final goodbye
To all her potential
To all her hopes, dreams
Her goals they don’t seem
Help is essential
I pray this night
The strength from God
I can no longer prod
Intervention in sight
Pray for us please
A daughter slipping away
For I can’t sleep on this day
Pray for guidance to help her see
