My life has changed in the blink of an eye
and as I look back at the years drifting by
I sit and ask myself -
Why?

Why would you go and worry about that
when the answer was right under your hat
when you could have just smiled --
and relaxed

Why did I let those years pass by so fast
why not make every moment last
I look back and just see time --
Passed

Now I wonder what I am doing with my time
Just idling by and making a rhyme
Or am I making moves to
Climb

How long will I sit and ask myself why
How long will I just merely "Try"
Will I just ask away, and let my time
Fly?

I was the victim.
I was the beaten.
I was the ravaged.
I was forsaken.

I had no faith.
I had no strength.
I put the smile on to cover it...

But now... Something has changed..
I never felt this way.

I am happy.
I am strong.
I am faith-full.
I am me.

I let go of fear
I let go of blame
I let go of anger
I let go of shame

I let myself see
The value in me.

Oh you boy,
Can't you see...
Can't you see what you're doing
Look at your heart,
look at your mind
Only YOU can change it.

You hold the anger, you hold those judgements...
against everyone, and mainly yourself...
Take it from someone who knows...
You have to let go,
You have to forgive
You have to take your life and LIVE
You can't just wait,
For someone to save you...


You and I have grown...
Over the past year, we have grown together.
and the most mature thing,
You have ever said...
was "I'm not ready"

Oh the things you have shown me!
Oh the revelations I've had!
Thank you THANK YOU
for being who you are!

For the good times and the bad!
For the Loving, for the Leaving
For the knowledge, and even grieving...
The tears helped to show me
That I could live without fear...
The pain, helped me get over, the fear of pain itself.

I am happy for you,
I am happy for me
I am happy for the relief!

Don't be feel sad, Don't feel strange
We love one another... its just the wrong time...
We are so young yet, my love...
Lets be the friends that we haven't had the time to be...
Let you be you, and me be me...

The wolf cries in passion
in great power and great love
forever in the mercy
of our God above

The birds sing in melodies
and the crickets through the night
hiding behind black veils
and never seeming trite

They all long for one thing
and one thing alone
to be worshiping forever
before Our God's throne

With every fiber in their being
They worship forever on
the wolves with their howling
the birds with their song
