Blessing In Disguize

you had to get to know her
never could you tell her
never could you show
what she didn't know

she could tell the truth from your petty little lies
one look and you'd be through from her piercing hazel eyes
you could try to run but you could never hide
from the beauty of her soul she was ominous in mind

she had a curse within a blessing that you could not conceive
you would wish to take her burden just so she could feel relief
she would see to it your paradigms would shift as you perceive
she would have you wishing every day an ounce of her you could receive

she could make you smile by merely seeing her face
and if you held her in your arms you would simply be amazed
you would miss as you had never while she was away
as you closed your eyes saw her face music would start to play

she could freeze you in the moment with a voice sent down from heaven
a voice that drew so many tears from any man who dared to feel
she would be twelve steps ahead of you at any time at any place
realizing whats at stake you would trip yourself within this race

eventually the time would come to let her go so she could grow
you would leave with countless lessons this she wouldn't know
peace would thrive and what you gained and lost would change your life
for she is a gift from heaven a blessing in disguize
