The dagger

Tears fall as I cry
Looking up at the sky
The emotional pain that is with in me
Will never be set free

I get the news today
It takes all my laughter away
Shock and disbelief come over my soul
Because this is only in god's control

This is very personal, right to the heart
About a family member, that I'm not far apart
I can't believe this is happening to her
How on earth did this occur?

Too young to die, a sister I love dearly
My eyes begin to water, I no longer see clearly
I hope the test results are good
In many other family's they should

She is hurting a lot, may it cease
It would put my mind at ease
Yet I have ideas and speculations
As I analyze symptoms with mental calculations

My prayers will be with her tonight
Hopefully they will make things right
We all will know in about a week
The results I wish to seek

Things would be better if it happened to me
Suffering is a agony I'm used to, but no one can see
I'm older and very strong
While she is thin and not as far along

She doesn't even know
Which makes me sad from head to toe
The doctor is a legend, so I'm on the edge of my seat
Not even he can prevent defeat
