    Do Not Pray For Me

     Do not pray for me
    I beg of you to let my life be
    I'm strong physically and will fight until the very end
    Instend I pray that your prayers you will send

    To a small old women with a heart of gold
    For her plot in heaven can never be sold
    Always living through lifes painful sturggle with a smile upon her face
    For her legacy can never be erased

    Choosing to live on with the pain deep within
    Always living a life with God free of sin
    She is many things to many people she has touched
    For it seems her time here is now being rushed

    Decaying health rambles this angles well being
    Yet faith is what keeps her seeing
    The little things we all lost track of
    Like the whispers of a strangers love

    This women has chosen to live through all her pain
    Most of you this would drive you insane
    To know what is eventually your end
    And yet she gladly awaits her angels send

    To bring her home to rest with her father
    She would tell you not to mourn and not to bother
    Cause she's at peace and reunited with her love
    And she will keep watch over you from above

    To know such a strong women brings me such pleasure
    It' fills me in inspiration I cannot measure
    She has taught me how to not fear the knowing
    For uncondional love she is always showing
