Poem Title:
Poem
It took many years for me to understand, Realize that, yes… I, too, needed a hand. The girl who was always giving, from a heart Who lived to hand out her brand of hope… But, I found… no, not everyone Was like me – Not everyone could let go of the past, Forgive and give away… Breathless promises of light, glowing Beneath the aching of a moon, Silent and filled with beautiful, soothing, In shades of blue – while stars glisten Through the shadows, faded… Not everyone could see beneath the ink, Tears who gave dreams a second chance, Hope that believed in the worst circumstance… There is a reason, like the rainbow, Subtle like the wind, and glorious – washing away the rain’s… Soft splattering, with a healing, settling – Even the memories are blessings, Yes, the memories are the sweetest blessings! Still, I could know – When all is said and done, My heart has the best of any friend, The love who lives within, Yes, that love is reason enough… To reach out to those who need, Those who bleed, Those who doubt and can’t find a way out… Reaching beyond the shadows, Into the heart who matters – yes, the gift Is the love that will never fade, Love that is the best reason to stay… Even when others leave me feeling like… I’m misunderstood and unworthy, I know One who remembers what love does, One who frees and agrees… it is love that brings peace, It is love that can see through the sorrow, Into the joy of tomorrow, Where I’ll continue to grow, always able to show… That His love is the answer, His love is the light – His love makes a way for my heart to always pray, And my soul to always say… Even when others can’t make a way, His love will always stay – freeing me to say, Love like this is more beautiful than any gift. He is the presence that makes me whole, The presence that assures my soul, The presence of love that goes beyond the best, Putting hearts to the test… with love this good, There is no doubt, despite being misunderstood, I will forever know what it is to love without fear, With a love that lasts throughout all the tears!
