ANOTHER DOOR OPENS

She made humble resolution
w
hen she found out the news
t
ears leisurely rolled down her face

 How must one feel
w
hen they hear those words…
a
ccept them with heavenly grace?

 In one way, she acknowledged
b
y speaking to God with an open heart
knowing her life was not a waste

 Yet, not ready to give up the fight
a
nd passionately shaking her head
s
he was prepared for this unthinkable race

 She trusted God, but, was faintly bemused
(Believing
His way was the right way)
not yet, was she parting
for a higher place

 So with infinite love from her family
With incredible support from her friends

She fought with a smile and embrace

 Though, after some time of following rules
a
nd playing this game with tenacity
h
er body tired and couldn’t sustain the pace

 Thus, saying farewell to her loved ones
She
was given angel’s wings
for her new life of eternal happiness

Another door opens…

In loving memory of family and friends
who have passed away~

HURTING ANGEL

For those children unable to
live in a loving environment.
May they find a reason to smile~

If only she could dream
Of rainbows and butterflies
Of a friend who never lies
Of a mommy to braid her hair
Of a daddy to simply be there
Of a world not needing disguise

If only she wouldn’t dream
In her darkened corner, where she cries
Wondering the who’s, where’s, and why’s
If the ache will stay in her forever
The pain she endures is clever
Surrounding her dismal, shadowed eyes

Love is a stranger to her life
Allowing only distress and strife
No escape illuminates the dark
Caution is kept to erase the mark
Loneliness cuts her spirit like a knife

Yet, with folded hands, she looks to the skies
And prays for warmth in the sunrise
And wishes for rainbows and butterflies

ONLY

In my own little world
Is where I’ll be
In my own little world
For no one to see
Nothing can hurt me
No words to insult me
Only my hands hold the key

In my own little world
Is where I’ll be
In my own little world
For no one to see
No one to love me
No words to encourage me
In my own little world
There is no “we”

In my own little world
There’s no one to miss me
They don’t even know I’m away
My heart breaks, but I’ll take time to pray
Only me, in my little hideaway
