More than words

Life,

It takes you by surprise,

Thoughts, secrets, worries, stories,

It all adds up,

Losing a sister,

A best friend,

Having the time of our lives,

 Growing,

Making memories,

Thinking little of the little time you have,

Then before you know it you’re watching her leave,

Not knowing if you’ll ever see her again,

Days go on,

Waking up and no one’s there,

All you have are the memories,

Waiting and waiting to reunite,

To be the same again,

Happy,

Years go by and you fall in love into another heartbreak, that you don’t know if you can survive,

Taken for granted,

Used,

Making you wonder who you really are,

Waking up lost,

 Upset with the world,

Confused,

Unsure where you’re from,

What kind of person you are,

Who you want to be,

All you want is the truth,

 Or maybe “clarity”,

Yes!

Clarity to clear these cloudy days,

But somehow you keep pushing,

Praying,

Knowing God is greater than all the problems and will rescue me,

So much takes place in life,

Some deeper then the words,

But they do set you free,

Learning, living, experiencing,

Is why I write,

To set myself free,

From life

Hoping I can live
