She Has Been Through Some Things

Things that would make your head swim Things that may make your heart bleed with chagrin But, Now standing Looking back over the pages of her life Wondering why so many things Had appeared trying to cause her much strife When no one understood Or came around She had an indelible strength That coursed her veins through When called upon, it was a true force to be reckoned with Yes, my friends she has been through some things The men who were in her life Were to represent strength and honor You will find that she will not knock them hard After all, they were only men, Who perhaps had been through some trying things too~ Even with the women in her life that were supposed to be there In order to teach her what was good in the world For the sake of her womanhood Seemed to busy prissing and preening themselves for a future With a generation of men who would seem to be their junior Yes, she has been through some things However, she would never whine to you She now can look back and smile Because she sought out the answers That would indeed bring her through Unbroken, even in a piercing silence found Her feet are most assuredly planted; on solid ground Yes, she been through some things If you’ve ever truly lived at all You know that you have been through Some things too… Many Blessings, She has been through some things…
