I saw my life as blank pages,
a book where I could write whatever I wanted,
however I wanted.
I remember the years I spent
trying so hard to make a mark
one that never stayed.
Now I’m back at the beginning of my story again:
same blank pages,
same ink,
same book of life…
but with a different plea,
and a new conviction.
Lord, I am tired.
I acknowledge my pride,
my will,
my childishness
the thought that I didn’t need You,
that I was enough for myself.
But I was beaten,
scorned by a world
that does not care if I exist.
Now I say I am sorry.
I need You.
Your presence.
Your existence.
Please, write my story.
Take my ink.
Receive my book.
I don’t want to do it myself anymore.
I sit in walls that echo my failures,
where the sound of despair drowns me,
and the abyss calls.
I ask for Your light
it is all I can ask for,
it is all I seek now.
Bless me
with Your forgiveness,
and with Your mercy.
— Orion's plea (Chronicles of Ariah)
