Love without suffering a lie
She sat in front of me crying softly,
reliving what happened the night before,
her son called her in the early morning
acting in ways unknown,
scaring her into also calling me.
He cried, she told me wiping her eyes,
he has never done that before,
sobbing about his wife,
whom he adores,
after six years of marriage
he still worships her.
The tumor much bigger than they thought,
he is in a panic,
fearful of losing the love of his life.
Ask everyone you know to pray he told her with passion,
surprising since he says he does not believe,
yet stating prayer is powerful;
so she told me,
as well as all of her friends.
So we are praying
the outcome unknown
in the meantime her son suffering because of his wife,
she because of her son.
Love without suffering is a lie
since what is done to the beloved
the lover also goes through,
perhaps worse;
ask any loving parent.
