Happy Birthday, Mama Mary

The Church celebrates the Birth of the Blessed Virgin Mary every September 8th (or at least mostly). Now, as September 8th, 2024 ( which is today) is a Sunday, the observance of the feast is moved to Monday, September 9th, 2024, since the Sunday of. the Church takes precedence over the observance of the Birth of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Since, it's been quite busy lately, and have sadly again neglected to work on A Merry Little LIfe (I intend to get back to it soon. So, while the observance is moved to the 9th, I still wanted to post something on the actual date. So I thought I share I wrote in college which is more og a prayer: which is coincidental because I titled: "Mama's Prayer". So here it is:

Mama's Prayer

V1: Dearest Mother, I run to you battered and bruised, tattered and used .I stand before thee hand open, holding the broken pieces of my heart, of my soul. I tried to fi fix the brokenness yet every time a hole remains


C: Mama, I flee, frome the world, into your embrace. I look in the mirror and my reflection is not my own. Mama, I look into these eyes and only see sadness. There's a distant light. I grab hold of it, yet each time I feel his grasp upon me, pulling me back, pulling away. Mama, I can't do this alone. I need help, mama.


V2: Dearest Mother, I see the sundrise only to see it fade away. Joy evades me. Hope seems lost. The world appears gray. to chorus


V3: Dearest Mother, Each day a new mistake finds it's way to me. I try, but can't get it out of my mind. I try to ignore, but he keeps reminding me. to bridge


Bridge: Dearesst Mother, bring me to the foot of the cross. Bring me to love. Bring me to hope. Dearest Mother, bring me to faith and joy. Dearest Mother bring me to Christ


Bridge: Dearesst Mother, bring me to the foot of the cross. Bring me to love. Bring me to hope. Dearest Mother, bring me to faith and joy. Dearest Mother bring me to Christ to chorus


That's all for today. Happy Nativity of the Blessed Virgin. Come back next time to follow my Merry journey of life.
