Her eyes were bigger then
my world,
she arrived full of hope
smiling at me,
she trusted me to protect her
little did she know
I was consumed with fears...
As the years went on
her precious brother
entered screaming I'm here
still I lived afraid
hiding, with no one to help
not really able to express what
was wrong inside of me....
Their father was there
but worse then I
he was a good man in many ways
just stuck and we sunk together.....
We know I utterly failed everyone
at least that's how I felt
the man I once worshiped
I only pitied
even now writing this
my heart hurts from my failure...
These are the reasons
I love God so much
He brought hope into our lives
For the first time in your life Jan
I see your smile
I see the trust
this time
it's in HIM!
