That's all I ask, to give me a break!
Let my body heal for a while!
Stop the tears that bleed from my heart,
And please help me to find my smile…
The smile has gone from my heart,
My eyes are sad and I feel blue,
Because another problem hits my health,
And I just don't know what to do!
I battle on through life every day,
And I fight every fight head on!
But this time I'm really floundering…
And my life is not any fun!
Tumour, that's a funny word…
It strikes such terror in the heart!
Well I'd had two, and I wasn't phased,
But now it's different, and that's the hard part!
You see, two tumours, another, so what?
That's three I have had in my life!
And now the third's grown back again!
And I am full of sadness and strife!
Because this grew back within 2 weeks,
Oh woe, oh woe, but I am sad this day…
So now it has to be removed again…
And I am feeling far from ok!
You see, for the first time in my entire life,
I am as happy as a humming bee…
The love of my life, we are husband and wife,
And what a life we wanted to see!
But now the fear is within me so deep,
I can't see the wood for the trees,
I swear to God, oh so I swear…
This has all but brought me to my knees!!
All I see is my man all alone,
Left here without me to love…
It breaks my heart; I don't want that to happen!
So I pray to my God above…
But I don't think He hears me this time,
For I am floundering on a sea of tears,
My heart it bleeds till it can bleed no more,
And I am drowning so deep in my fears!!
So all I can do is offer another prayer;
And say to this Icon above…
‘Lord hear my prayer, and help me through!
And bless me with your strength and love!
Lord above, let me live…let me live,
For I have a wonderful life with my man,
You know I believe in the Miracles of Christ,
And I know if you want to help me, you can!
So please dear God, I am begging you,
Help me through this hellish trial!
Stay at my side; support me please,
And get me to get over another stile!
Because I am lost and void of thought,
For my heart it bleeds so much,
And just at the moment, my dear Lord,
Once more, can you please be my crutch?
