'regardless - You Are Loved'
The music played so loud
drowning her thoughts
her tainted face the only
testament of her battle
grasping at straws
just to have something to
hold onto
as the blissful feeling
starts to disappear -
I remember you used to smile
she thought,
what happened to your happiness?
Where did the echo of your laughter run to?
You never used to ponder,
just enveloped every moment
What made you change?
I never saw this coming
that face,
that look,
so distraught
would a hug do the trick?
Or the simple message
that no matter what,
you are loved?
It may not be uttered every day
but remember you are loved
even with a tainted face -
Suddenly the music stopped
and the refrain of
I love you was heard...
she turned around
and smiled
realizing that through all her mistakes
God still loved her…
