The reasons I pray are much larger
Than self.
I'm ignoring my pain, my debt and
My health.
I don't drop to my knees or clench my
Eyes tight.
I just open my soul and forget all
My fright.
I don't get the chills. I don't hear
Any sounds.
I don't feel the angels fixing
My frown.
I don't see the lights. I don't hear a
Harp playing.
But I do know God hears what
I'm saying.
I'm free of my pleasures, temptations
And such.
I'm not waiting for choirs or a
Healing touch.
I really have no goals when I'm
Praying besides,
To be free from the selfishness of
My mind.
