Abandoned Prayers


This old unloved church
that`s stood for many years
no more blessings found
just the angel`s tears

Rows of decaying pews
with damp pealing paint
dark drab furniture
hints of colour so feint

Time has passed on by
faith has lost the day
wooden floors littered
no one left to pray

Moon light streaming through
locked windows behind
the sheer dereliction
plays tricks on the mind

There`s no love left here
for these sad old chairs
as nothing remains
just abandoned prayers
