An Agnostics’ Prayer

I come to you, battered and helpless.

My demons have overstayed their welcome.

Society and personal afflictions have kept me from you.

Nothing on this beautiful earth truly helps to the extent of true peace, so I must look beyond.

I lay in a dark and quiet room, alone, desperately looking for a way out of the mist of despair I once gladly walked into.

I went to escape the realities of this world, but I’ve seemed to become lost.

I’ve tried to find my way by myself for too long.

I need your help, your guidance, for how can I guide others when I am lost myself?

I’m still your soldier, I just went rogue.

Show me the way, and I will forever be grateful.

Amen.
