THE PRAYER OF GABRIELLE
by Jessica Caldwell
fishy@greencis.net

Tonight, although I am not a saint,
I pray that all went right.
I pray that we have another bright morning,
and that Xena and I live through the night.

Tonight, although I rarely pray,
I hope that you hear me.
Whoever you are, and wherever you are.
You are someone that I cannot see.

Maybe I pray to Perticus,
my late and long lost love.
If I pray to Perticus,
give me a sign from above.

Maybe I pray to the stars,
my lights when the night is long.
If I pray to the stars tonight,
in the morning, I shall here a bird's sweet song.

Tonight, as I lay here awake,
I look into the sky.
I think of all the mysteries of life,
and begin to wonder why.

Tonight, as I wonder
why life happens the way it does,
I remember that there is a reason.
It's that way, just because.

Maybe I pray to a faraway person,
who hears me and smiles as I speak.
If I pray to a faraway person,
I hope someday we'll meet.

Maybe I pray to the air I breathe,
who does not listen at all.
But if I pray to the air I breathe,
my life would surely fall.

Tonight I look up into the heavens,
and finally I see.
It doesn't matter who I'm praying to.
As long as they hear me.
