How



How can someone live with so much pain
How can I be alive when I drowning in my own life's rain
NOT AGAIN
here comes the tears
At night I fear
That I'll wake up in the morning still here
During the day
I ask God and say
How come I feel this way?
How can I change?
Without having to do anything that seems strange
He simply said "Give me your heart, mind and soul"
"That's the only way I can console"
But I thought that to be too much and I ended up falling in a even deeper hole
"OH LORD!" I cried one night
"Please, please Father make this right!"
His presence entered my room
It was all silent but then I heard a boom
I ran into my closet petrified
"Don't run child, there's no need to hide!"
That night I gave God my all
and He said in the sweetest tone "You my child has gotten up from the fall."
This was what I always needed, and I have it now
There's no more need for to ask how.
