*After receiving a text that says, "please pray for me"...(and so much more)...
Oh baby, please.
Yes. I will pray
as you ask
as you want
as you wait for answer
whether to keep trying
to live
I love you
live
please
live
I pray the shooting pain
through heart and lung
will stop will leave you be
will not consume
Oh, friend
my friend
dear One
I love you
as I pray
as you ask
Stay on this planet
get to the doctor
stay on this planet
take the medication
stay on this planet
live
drink water
lots of it
breathe
take another breath
breathe some more
don't stop love
don't stop breathing
and some more
breathe
stay with us
believe the love
around you
get to the doctor
take your medication
breathe
feel hug and tight grip
feel me try to keep
you here on planet
in your skin uncut
by razor
in your head
in tact
to be
to hug
to hold
to love
to hug
and laugh
oh sister-friend
I pray for the pain
to stop hurting you
my love
breathe
take another breath
breathe some more
don't stop
don't stop
just don't stop
breathing
living
being
answer your phone now
I'm breathing with you
