I Believe

I believe  
I believe 

The chances may be bleak 
Hope could be quite a feat 
In this darkness to achieve
 
But even when the sword is pressed on my neck 
And I slowly begin to bleed
And it’s hard for me to breathe 
My eyes flutter 
And I begin to heave
My pulse fades
My consciousness begins to recede 

But I will not concede
I will not grieve  
I will not leave 
Till my last breath
I will hold onto my creed
And I will continually cleave 

Then Now Forever 

I believe 
I believe

Comment:

I took a child of mine to get checked at the hospital. There was something problematic persisting in his health. As the doctor ran the test on him, I felt I was breaking. I felt a despair begin to creep into me; slither in my heart and throughout my body. I became weak and at that point, I was about to burst out and cry. I gathered all my strength and prayed instead. This is my prayer.
