Four Years Before We Met

alone crying screaming
left alone, tears streaming
no pride,self esteem, running down cheeks
beaten down again

found in floor
face down
barely breathing
not caring all but gone

only just went to sleep
again woken up
stange visions someone in trouble
prayer a must, but why me

tubes here, tubes there
tiny little checks all over
can't tell even now
is this man or woman

son stands over her
why mom why
don't want to go on
just don't want to be here any more

man praying at strangest times
does not know for who or why
just sees a vision of someone with no face
and knows there is desperate need

they finally come together after 4 year bout
she again in desperate need
he there to comfort and bring her to peace
showing the path to Father God

That was four years ago
seems maybe i was right
same old bull
are you praying for me tonight

What a sad piece, so intensely emotional... Well, if it means anything to you, I'll pray for you.

Have you ever noticed some of our most intense poetry comes from the worst emotions to live through?

I'll pray as well for you if it helps any.
