God Blessing After the Storm
Every needle
Every stick
Every catheter
Every surgery
Watching my blood
For three hours
Run through a machine
Monday, Wednesday, Friday
It was my job 5am
3 hours
6 years experience
On my life resume
I have scars to show
Long memories
Never leave my mind
Testimonials to tell the masses
Giving up
Got tired
But on the wee hours
On April 14, 2009
Unexpected phone called
Life changing
I heard those sweets words
You are a match
Get to the hospital
You're getting a kidney transplant
I knew my God
Have a strong purpose
To be fulfilled
