Realization

Sometimes moments of doubt come across me
Moments that make me ask questions 
And question why?
But as other moments pass beneath me
It makes me say thank you
Until today, I learned and acknowledged
What patience really is
What enduring something and living with the hurt really makes
Now I know why and I stopped questioning
The doubts vanquished but the fears came
When you say when will God give us our right, and justify our position
And you got tired of waiting and sick of tired
As I asked the question to mom with prospects and thoughts of misery
 And she so simply answered me
“You can never tell God what to do, he knows when the time is right, he knows what 
to do, and what he is doing, even though it was after a while of time, even though it 
was a while in years, he will still give us our right, because he is God, all justified and 
glorious”
As I nodded in much agreement than ever and spoke
“I love you mom, you are so great, even though dad is misguided and everything 
turns out against us, you stay there joking with us and trying to better the day, how 
great are you mother, I love you!”
As the car parked into the mall’s parking lot
And I stepped outside 
And we separated
