poem ~ take time to pray

Today, I will take the time 
to love and pray for you,
Because when I do, 
it will change me 
even if it doesn't change you too.

Today, I will take the time 
to love and pray for you,
Even in the midst of my emotional pain,
for it is clear that this is 
what I'm always supposed to do.

Today, I will take the time 
to love and pray for you,
As I ask God for direction,
to know exactly 
just what to do.

Today, I will take the time 
to love and pray for you,
I will again choose to let go,
of our friendship 
and all the hurtful things you say and do.

Today, I will take the time 
to love and pray for you,
And focus on the good memories
and the things that 
are honest, good and true.

Today, I will take the time 
to love and pray for you,
Because my heart is completely torn,
knowing that on this path 
I will feel fulfilled yet worn. 

Today, I will take the time
to love and pray for you,
And always hope that I can show
some love to your hurting soul
even when you're honestly so cold.

Today, I will take the time 
to love and pray for you,
For you mean so much to me,
even if you are 
no longer walking this journey with me.

Today, I will take the time
to love and pray for you,
For I know I can live with no regrets,
because I'm given grace
and forgiveness yet.
