PLEASE HEAR OUR PRAYER

PLEASE HEAR OUR PRAYER

In the twelfth day of the eleventh month
A simple celebration of someone's birth
Yet a stunning sunshine deep within was felt
A blissful happy noon full and complete

Each one in that roof has a story to tell
Who woudn't when you're set free from a shell
Just an observant but was glad to listen
Satisfied to stay in the world I was in

Few hours later exchanging of goodbyes
Just before I left capturing a bad news
"Did you hear about Ma'am Bevs?"
Attacked with an aggressive illness

My oh my what a sad story to bring
Alone in the room, can't stop thinking
No tears to flow, catching the air
All good memories I begin to hear

Counting with my fingers she's one of the few
If not the first yet not the last I knew
Someone who loves me unquestionably
Someone who believes on me with all sincerity

Remembering my last visit in her office
Never missed to offer me some cookies
Feeling exhausted I went to her and rest
Busy as she was, she wanted me to sit

Now she's fighting for her life
And I'm praying for her to survive
I don't know if my prayer is so selfish
But I know this is also her wish

This is what she whispered
This is what she said
She wants to live for Jesus
She wants to live in kindness

Though I understand the struggle
Those people with her in this battle
But I know God's strength for them is enough
I know God is fighting in their behalf

Lately I don't hear any updates or any news
Daily I'm scared to hear from some fellows
Please enough of bad stories to hear
Dear LORD, please hear our prayer!
