Beyond the rough exterior
A wall of pride and self:
Stubborn outlook on all of life.
Lies a little girl
Tucked up in a shell:
Bordered by a stone wall strong
Sits a torn heart
Ripped by hurt and sorrow:
Misunderstood and ignored
Wanting to be loved
Willing to risk it all:
Just to start again
She needs a Father's hand
A tide of love and mercy:
Covered by imaginary shelter
Under all that scorn
She is worn:
Lost and wandering all alone
Decided only thing stands
She is in the Master's plan:
Within His love she may abide
Unwilling to hide
The ground must be renewed:
Though the night is long the day is stronger still.
