The Dumb Girl


Lord,

Can you hear the girl,

That prays to you every night,

Praying with all her might,

Asking for everything to be alright,

Wanting so bad to win the fight.

 

 

There is a silent girl

Who has no mother to fulfill her needs,

No father to grant deeds,

No strong rlo model who leads.

 

 

And when she makes a mistake,

No matter where or whence,

She says "how can you be a nurse, when you lack common sense!"

 

 

Her heart becomes heavy,

Because it soaked it all,

Theres no way she could cry,

Because her tears refuses to fall.

 

 

She has no other choice,

But to just remain dumb.

She cannot move herself.

For her body has been made numb.

 

 

All she can do,

Is to have faith in the Lord.

He heard all her cries,

He has the power,

To literally wipe the tears from her eyes.
