Prayer

I put on my brave face and face the world

i have my coat on because life s cold

if God hears one of my prayers from my faceless soul

my life would have a purpose , so this prayer is told

my prayer is that there would be happiness in yours

be it with me or someone else close

my body retains its darkness except for this

this one light which i send to you

this one prayer i hope you read

this one life i hope you bless

and your worries about my soul would be less

so i pray to thee

i bow before you...my eyes to the floor

i know you never heard from me before

but i ask one thing

not to be too profound

just something simple, hear my soul's simple sound?

just one person for you to grant your blessing

this is not my plea for my selfish being

but from an anonymous soul to you...please hear me sing

BAEUTIFUL LINES!

Your imagery, expression, rhythm, every thing is very charming, you speak from the heart, and I hear you from my heart!
Welcome again to the bay!
