Oh great almighty physician
healer of mankind
I bring you someone special
a friend and love of mine.
Fill him with your spirit
flow through every vein
wash his blood pure and clean
cancer free again.

Amen

Oh How I Wish

Remember the day I tripped and fell
you caught me in your arms
since that very day, my love,
you have saved me from all harm.

I've never known a man so gentle
everything you do breeds pure love
yet you are so strong in so many ways
I've never had one thing to be afraid of.

How I wish I could hold you close
so close you couldn't breathe
transposing the cancer from your body
to straight inside of me.

Oh how I wish I could carry your pain
and save you from such suffering
protecting you from all harm
as you have done our wedding rings.

Test Of Faith

Drip. Drip. Drip.
the poison circulates
chemo through his veins
while patiently he waits.

Destroying all of his cells
the good along with bad
causing him to fight
a fight like he's never had.

He's feeling sick from chemo
his energy is gone
side affects are setting in
I hope they dont last long.

At times I get so angry
wondering why this must be
why God doesnt help him now
saving him from this misery.

Questions.. there are many
I struggle to keep my faith
answers seem so far from reach
as anxiously I wait.

How simple it is to have faith
when it's myself in suffering pain
but when it concerns one I love
faith is tested over and over again.
