A Man I Know.........*tamara*

Let me tell you about a man I know,
He is down on his luck with wholes in his soul...
His eyes are always so full of pain,
His words are laced with guiltful shame...
He suffers so, yet the world cannot see,
The burden he carries so heavily...

Let me tell you about a man I know,
A man I promised 'to have and to hold'...
In sickness, so far, is all it has been,
I sit and cry often for the soon to come end...
Fear and worry chase my every step,
Dread at the right of me, impending doom at my left...

Let me tell you about a man I know,
Whose disease constantly grows...
While the light in his eyes constantly fades,
Who once was sooo happy, now is always afraid...
I could help him you see,
Yet my failure always plagues me...

Let me tell you about a man I know,
Oh GOD, how I love him soooo...
But to save him...is up to him,
I am soooo powerless, my friend...
So I pray that GOD will take good care,
I give him my love, hope, and above all prayers...
