do you pray?

do you pray?

do you whisper words to God
send Him your tears
in an envelope of humility?
do you laugh and smile
as you tell Him your stories
or thank Him for the gift you are?
do you pray
about every fragment of thought
that passes?
do you close your eyes
and clasp your hands
while your lips deliver your dreams
your hopes
your loves
your sorrow
to the ears that lie in heaven?
do you pray for others
people you hold in your hands
or nameless statistics in the news?

do you pray
as you tell me to?
i can only imagine
you, kneeling beside your bed
a beautiful figure saying beautiful words
in all honesty and sincerity
purity and truth.

do you pray?
do you?

i dunno why i'm in such a poetic mood. or such a blogging mood either. heh.
