Just for today

Just for today, All I ask is silence
To hear Your voice in this boisterous whispers
Just for today, All I ask is comfort
To cry beneath the sheets buried in 6 feet deep

Just for today, All I ask is assurance
To know that all is well in the busyness of idle
Just for today, All I ask is laughter
To smile from cheek to cheek at the end of the riddle

Just for today, All I ask is peace
To have serenity in this unending noise of streets
Just for today, All I ask is rest
To close my eyes and know that I can sleep

Just for today, All I ask is mercy
To forgive and be forget all that has happened
Just for today, All I ask is grace
To be favored not by many but have and unexpected end

Just for today, All I ask is support
To not be standing alone in the middle of a crowd
Just for today, All I ask is love
To have all these things, knowing that in fear, I haven't drowned
