Only God
Knows Why
I
remember a time when each day
was long,
when the world was
a
play
ground and my life like
a song.
I
let the years pass
by with barley
a
care, not thinking
of the future
or
what waited
there.
My
parents assured me I had nothing
to fear,
and no matter what they
would
always be
there. Little did I know of a
world
out side home where tragedy
sorrow
and sickness could
roam.
As a
child my biggest concern was
just
being me, wanting to be happy
needing
to be free. Always content
never
shedding a tear, I thought
no matter
what Id always be here.
But now I
am grown up and
darkness
is starting to set in, I often
Look back
to when life was a game,
Bust no
matter what happens it will
never be
the same!
There are
days when I just want to
break
down and
howl! To give up
completely
and
through in the towel. Then I look
at my
children and I
know without a doubt,
I wanna
be here to see how there life
turns
out!
Ill hold
my head high and push my
way
through I have so much to give
yet so
much to do! I make you this
promise
now though it will be hard,
Ill go on
and smile and play every card!
