My Book
You know, I've seen to many people come and go,
in and out of my life, as if it was Louisiana snow.
Some stay and last a lifetime,
others just come through as if they are just passing by.
It's the ones that don't stay long,
that I wondering if I had done wrong.
If I should of gave more,
or should of opened up to the core.
Maybe they would of stayed,
from the love that I could of gave.
To the place in my heart they could of held,
because I love like no other, only a few can tell
That it may only be an emotion
but it is something that can cause a commotion
to have in your life, to someday be a wife
With two beautiful kids, that it don't matter if they are his
because they are part of me,
and are a joyous sight to see.
I feel I can sometimes be an open book
left wide open for anyone to look
my book has been abused and torn
pages ripped out,the cover well worn
Words have faded as true love was taken
Ripped from the heart of this one now shaken
How can life hold me here, with all this love and wear and tear
To try and build back up for my kids
Is just as hard as living again
How will my book end?
Can the pages be mended and wrote again?
My Lord says they can
He promises that they will
All I have to do is kneel
on my knees and heart opened
for me and you, he will never forget our love
because how I feel, is how he feels from up above
because we break his heart and rip his words apart
some without knowledge others without guilt
but we are his children, we are his quilt
the ones he created
stitch for stitch, inch for inch
we are his true love, we are his hearts book
And if you trust in him, your book can be rewrote
with a new cover and binding that can never be broke
For this is to you, my lord and almighty father
The one who sits next to me
the only one who sees me as a daughter
Without you, I don't know where I would of been
Because now I have a new book
A new life
in Jesus name, AMEN ♥
