Peering from my window as the Heavens begin to leak
Trickles form a raindrop sliding slowly out of sight
Such an amazing sense of wonder this thing we call rain
Where is it that it comes from as I see no end in the sky
As such a wetness falls upon us and into the ground to dry
Is it the angels crying tears, no this can’t be
For there is no pain or sorrow just love and happiness of a place open and free
Where does the rain fall from as the clouds appear to be fluffy and bright
And why is it with the rain comes thunder and lightening Roaring with all its might
Such a mysterious force of nature or An act of God per say
The floors of heaven will open and wet Gods land today

So young and beautiful yet you wear a painted smile
The sadness you hold inside of you and have been hiding for a while
Yet you have hid it from the world and wore a painted smile
I feel your pain sharp like knives stabbing at you one by one
If I could could change things you know I would for the pain you feel I know is because you are so in love with my son.
You would give your heart and soul to him if only he would commit
But his life has thrown him so much it’s hard for him to quit
He calls on you in his time of despair
Because he knows far to well how much you care.
I want to be angry for the way he has done and pushed you to the side
But baby girl I believe in my heart he is protecting you and setting down his pride.
Cherish every little hug and kiss he’s given you
It’s harder for him to walk away and keep a friend that’s true
Just know what’s meant to be will be
No matter which way it goes I will love you know less you will always mean the world to me

Loneliness of the heart is much like a tumbleweed in the desert blowing  every direction the wind should carry it
Like a puppet without strings not knowing or having guidance as to its next move
The choices made are easily made but not so easy to retract
It would take more than true love to teach a broken heart how to act
Longing for completion in this life given to you
Is like chasing the rainbow to find the *** of gold
The journey is never ending with roads winding to and from
Carrying on down one hill to climb the mountain once again
Exhausted from your travels of chasing a rainbow to find no end
Life is all about where things come to an end, another beginning awaits you to begin

Family is so much more than the branches bending from a family tree
Blood may relate you but there’s more to a family like love and loyalty
They say blood is thicker than water this may be true
Though I’ve bared witness to blood clotting where water flowed straight through
As blood flows through your vanes it’s color is blue yet when you see it the color is red
I think Ile stick with the water that stays the same instead

We cherish our memories of things from our past
Often running them through our minds wondering why things couldn’t last
Why promises made of a forever love were all broken
To carry the pain of knowing they were simply words spoken
No meaning behind them no truth did they tell
Your lies have haunted me and drug me through hell
I’ve grown so much in this time you’ve been away
Never losing hope when you came back to me you were here to stay
That wasn’t the case as I had wished
You have no regrets for the time you have missed
You took for granted not only my heart
But this little girl you claimed to love from the start
It’s so hard for me to say goodbye
But you have broken my heart with no reason why
Keep your empty promises and those words that you speak
My worth is much more than a man that has become so weak.
It will be hard I know this is true
But I’ve come to realize I miss myself so much more than I miss you

Alone in the morning and even at night is how she lives her life
The days of her life have crept up on her tired broken soul, as she scoots off her bedside, with pain in her body stabbing like a knife
For many years there hasn’t been one day she hasn’t felt like giving up her fight
But the way she was raised and the woman she had become, giving up wouldn’t be right
Yet she wondered oh so often just what it was she was fighting for
For her body had all but given in to pain and the ones she loved didn’t seem to love her anymore
Tears all but consumed her once gleaming eyes
For the only thing gleaming in her eyes now are the tears when she cries
She will leave this earth with many unanswered questions in her mind
When she’s no longer here she wonders of the memories she will leave behind
Was she something so awful to be treated so bad
She will leave this earth with her heart broken and sad.
