People In Our Lives
People come and go in our lives
Leaving an indelible mark on our very souls
Some tread softly, carefully
Easing their way into our hearts
While others seem to just appear
From heaven above as angels
Staying just for a season
As if to simply help us through
Our darkest moments
Some will stay with you for a lifetime
And others will leave as quickly as they came
No matter the meaning or length
Of their presence in your world
Each and every human being
To trespass through the murky waters
Alongside you has a purpose, a meaning
Like a beautiful work of art -
Every brush stroke or pen stroke contributes
To the creation of the finished piece
That is how every individual that enters into our realm
Helps to form and create the uniqueness
That is our lives
Thank you for being part of my existence
Even if only for a brief time or season
Your very presence has helped shape
The masterpiece that is my life
I would not be who I am without you
