Why she couldn’t read?
Some people assumed, but she covered it up.
The only person she couldn’t hide it from was God himself!
No gas in the car,
Kids in the back seat crying because their stomach is screaming for food!
She looks inside her purse and no money; the only thing she owns is a bible!
Sadly she can’t read it, not because she couldn’t read.
Because her left eye is swollen and she can barely see out the other,
She hardly can pick it up she is so weak, No energy to cry out, just enough to pray.
Her right wrist is broken, while the left one is barely hanging on.
Now, can anyone tell me why she couldn’t read?
Feelings deep within
