Let me participate in these prayers I mouth to you.
Let these pleas live within my heart. Let me do more than recite from a script.

I have collapsed in a heap. I cry out for help: a true prayer.
I cower behind a barricade. I beg for rescue: a true prayer.
Let me find no pride in piety, Lord. You are the rescuer and lighthouse, not the jailer. Thy will be done.
(Letter #2.198)
