Black Ebony
She struggled enough
Survived from a stage 4b cancer periodically
Strong mindful woman of God
Settled in the Southern part of Florida
Prayers said daily with God's urn understood
Thanksgiving
She prepares for the up coming of his salvation
A word of truth testimony told freely
Fighting against all odds of this Black Ebony growth in 2015 until 2017 gone wrong
Another sign of it in 2024 left arm fracture bone
The root of it all She's suffering extremely
Painfully with stiffness for many says in that hospital room
Waiting to be operated on with tests to see the results
Returns once again
Black Ebony
Prayers works
Receiving an award
As she pray on into wonders of joy
Tears of cries
To Never have to faced chemo nor radiation
In this Christian body of Christ
To torn me apart
Beating the odd of black ebony
Supernaturally with both of my eyes open wide
To see God's good works
Every step of the way
Fighting a good race
Just t to tell a story
Where her life changed forever
Black Ebony rebirth once again
But God saved her
Stronger than ever
With a piece of his heart in her always
The rainbow of her words
Nosing around my age year-old neck
Until every new color
Became a prep in an endless
Lineup and life given long lasting
Her face is surprised of the missing
Components
Gray was the only thing as he could ever stomach
Growing as sick pearls
On queen's heads too bear to hold
A crown properly
The doctors last words
She escaped from
Just when the morning star comes up brighter than ever
She silent herself
The only thing given to her by the therapist
When she asked his pen and paper
If shrink
Being who she really is sick with motions
In Ebony rooms that just won't sit
Still
And group therapies and Prayer meetings where
My name
Is the only thing left
Unsaid
