Just Remember
With a heart wide open,
I ventured out into the world.
To live and experience,
Everything it has to hold.
All was great at first
Until I met temptation and sin.
And fell victim into the hands,
Of a person not able to turn away from them.
My heart broke
My innocence was lost
The light in my eyes left
My purity was gone
I looked up at the sky
Crying out to God
Why He let this happen to me
When He was all about justice and love
When no answer came
My heart began to close
I knew I’d never be the same
After that day anymore
Years and years passed
I strayed further and further away
Once in awhile wanting to turn back
But always finding my anger and emotions in the way
As more time passed
I couldn’t take it anymore
I hated God, I hated life
I just wanted to end it all
I had no hope, I felt so alone
I wanted to die, I was tired of feeling like I had to do it all on my own
I searched for an escape, a way out of this dreadful place
And found a knife, as a way to release
The scars on my skin
Were a reminder of the pain life brings
But the more I slit, the more I realized I couldn’t stop
I felt so lost now, then once more, I looked up
I started to speak, in anger at first
Then I began to cry
My cold heart started to open once more
As tears gushed out my eyes
I asked Him, why me?
Why had He deserted me when I needed Him most?
Why had He left me at the hands
Of someone so hurtful?
My eyes closed tightly
At the extreme pain, I was starting to feel
I fell to the ground on my knees
Realizing this was what it means to heal
After a moment, I got up again, and heard His voice
“When you needed me most, when you thought I had left you, it was then that I was right beside you, carrying you through it all.”
My heart broke, but with the feeling of His amazing love
I didn’t understand why I went through that,
But I know it was not mine, or His fault.
He loves me, He loves us all
With a love so great
It can’t be measured, or taken away.
Yes, bad things may happen
Life isn’t always great
But just remember that our Lord,
Will be with you all the way.
