The Strong Get By

My mind is fried My soul is weak. The passion in my heart wants to break. The courage I lack I make up with faith. Love is a stepping stone we all must take. Open your heart clear your mind. Believe in your father in the darkest times. Cherish friendships as they arise. The flames of friendships may go out at night. But you're never alone with your father in the sky. His love is pureness in every tear drop cried. His arms hold you tight when the sun shines bright. His words free your mind when you don’t know who to trust. His spirit lives inside every one of us. His love is a pureness you’ll never find. He is our father in the afterlife. I am blessed to know of this man. And can’t wait to take his hand..
