PRAYERS LEFT UNSAID

Destiny has dragged us along,
and we have found out that it
has been deaf and blind to the
individual who bleeds.
Isn’t a person who died
worth as much as those who
are allowed to go on living?
If I could only say all the forgotten
prayers that were left unsaid
by crippled and broken hands,
and sing all the songs that were left
unsung by heroes longing to be,
maybe something would be different.
Nothing that I can do can be as worthy
as what You can do through me.
