4-6 months

If I could have pried the cigarettes out of your fingers
I would have.

If I could take your sickness out of your body
and put it into mine
I would.

I'm ready to go,
I have been since he went.


this year has changed my life.
and i don't like it.

take me back to summers ago,
when things were simple.


Now we sit and we wait.
we watch you suffer.
we watch each other cry,
knowing the day will soon be here..

I wish I could take your sickness away Mammaw..

o but I am blessed

the snow just reminds me of you;
how everytime it snowed we tried to get together
that never happened ha.

Its hard to lose what seems like everything..
but o how I am blessed..


blessed with these feet
blessed with these hands
to serve my Lord, my King..


as i sacrifice food
i ask for enlightment
i ask for direction
i ask for hope.

I do believe that God is FAITHFUL.
He sustains.
He provides.
He conquers.
He loves.

My King, I owe you everything..

The flowers sing your praises.
The Earth shouts your glory.
and though my voice is small,
I chime in.
My voice will sing your praises forever.

For You are my love.
I am but a vessel.
