Pray Poem by Wilson Khor W.H.

I finally understood
why people pray

Even for those
time zones away;
Even when the world
makes so little sense;
And even when no god
is there to speak comfort
to all our difficult questions...

Because even when
the world turns bitter
in all its silence,

The sun still rises
as the night passes,
The rainbow still follows
after the rain,
And spring still arrives
when the snow melts away

Because people would always hope
people would believe
when it's for the ones they love
when they love with all their beings.
