A Silent Prayer……

A moment in time when a heart was crying out in pain
A time when one by one, rugs were pulled under this feet in chain
An instance when a whole world was spinning around insane
A time when a spirit was shaking with insecurity clings
An Angel fell with broken wings
With a whisper of a silent prayer of woe

Yet, no one saw the pain behind the smile
Or the stumble for balance, a need to hold for a while
Not a single person noticed, the pangs of nausea bile
Or the trembling of this soul, for a blanket of sincere
An Angel lay, heap among the ashes of tear
With a whisper of a silent prayer of hope

Along came a perfect stranger, who became the best friend
Never imagined the presence so cursed, was a blessing heaven-send
A person so unique, so exceptional in thought, an offer to befriend
A promise, a friendship of a lifetime, a priceless treasure to spend

The eyes felt the pain within
The presence was a steady pillar wherein
The thoughts healed the wounds within
The words soothed back life, in strength of faith
Angel rose in full splendor, to fly utmost the heavens of eighth
With a whisper of a silent prayer of gratitude
