With In All Your Strength

With in all Your Strength
By: Susan Lynn Covington
Date: 17\2009

With out your Understanding and your never ending  faith 
In what i said was  given just to me and that was my destiny 
And some thing i  had to complete because id never except defeat
I know for sure i could  have been even more were
Life would have taken more there and 
With all the hours, minuets and days  you  spend by the phone and door
All on hopes of what i said ...The Night Be four

Every day that Late became my way and 
You didn't see a trace of my Missing Face
And longer i could have stayed or.... Never left in the First Place 
I never wanted to Miss so much of  your growing up Ltitle Boy days
I still don't no how i let Time begin to change all my ways 
Something bad had me forgetting  everyone and everything 
Until i started to find that it was standing between  your... 
Always awaiting arms and mine
I am sure i could say i was doing the same and Missing and Wishing... 
Praying and Waiting  for the evil that gave us both this pain and more
Find what it must have been looking in us for
Because of  me to blind to see i was helping it 
Little Sweet Loving Heart was Braking
Some were Aone and Crying or Trying to 
Find all the Sick and Dying that were Hiding
Then when i did try to call 
No One around would be home with a phone at all
No One around me was home to use a phone 

And as You ...The Same
