The air was cold, the breeze blew strong Not a warm place in sight The trees were bare, the stones cold Even the sun seemed to frown..... Life was one big moan Of pain that had been, since birth Of broken hearts, shattered dreams Of hostile faces, unfulfilled hopes......
The soul screamed in pain 'Take me' 'take me' it cried in grief This life it could not bear With all its thorns, its groans...........
It prayed to god for release, for death For freedom from all fetters And a healing of its wounds.......
But silence was the answer A deep and stony silence That seemed to say------'wait, only wait'
~~~~~
Then one day the breeze blew Not strong---but gentle and sweet The air seemed warm Trees bloomed and the sun shone bright....
The world seemed to say 'we accept you and want you' 'You are a part of our lives' And life suddenly seemed precious and rare.....
But the soul questioned 'Is it true'? Will it last? It thought hard, doubted much Prayed for the truth to dawn But again......silence.......
Then all on a sudden the answer came Quietly, but with force, 'Doubt' not, trust in me For when one door shuts Another opens........
Your sufferings are not without cause Your trials come not without thought It is to temper you into steel And to make you strong and bold
I see but I wait To make a better you Everything is for the good 'Believe in me, and rest in peace'
