What Once Was
What once was is no longer.What once was a life of
pain is now gone. A life of hurt and anger has died
for now. All the unanswered questions are now
answered. A family I never knew is now mine. The
empty spaces that once was are now full. I've tried to
fill my life with all the love and happiness. I once
did not know. I now have a home where me, and my babies
can be safe. I opened the door to the lord and asked
him to send his angels to protect us from any evil and
that's just what he did. I go to sleep every night
thankful for all that is done. I wake in the morning
thankful to see another day. They say everything
happens for a reason even if we don't know why. I have
forgave the bad even though it will still be with me
for the rest of my life. I think it happens to those
strong enough to deal with it, that way we can help
those who are not as strong. It has made me the
person I am today. I know now that I will always be
able to take care of me and my family.
