Raindrops hitting the window pane,
childhood memories making me insane.
Inside my soul, it echoes the years,
showing a child's everlasting fears.
Long lost memories and missing dreams;
my sanity tearing at the seams.
I bounced around from home to home.
No one cared, their hearts were stone.
A little girl, who did nothing wrong,
My head held high, trying to be strong.
I didn’t understand why I was always alone,
No one wanted me; I was all on my own.
Crying, lost, neglected, and cold,
I reveal my story that's never been told.
I scream my fears; and I cry alone.
The scars are fresh, even though I’m grown.
Lost in these nightmares; I toss and I turn,
Horrible memories are all that I learn.
I don’t know why you would do these things,
To a child of yours, knowing the pain it brings.
Raindrops hitting the window pane,
childhood memories making me insane.
Inside my soul, it echoes the years,
showing a child's everlasting tears.
Faith
Out of the depths of dark despair
Comes Hope with the morning dawn
But Fear and Depression that put her there
Is not entirely gone
But, with Hope comes Faith to stand by her side
Till Fear and Depression are gone
From your fears you cannot hide
They must be overcome
Now Depression is finally gone
Still Fear lingers on
So Faith and Hope will continue the fight
'Til the battle has been won.
A gray sea soon to calm,
the North wind 'bout to hush
a tear drop on the brink of fall,
a rose, soon to blush.
Such things take time to notice,
for you must stop to see,
these trifling things of nature,
such amazing things about to be.
So stop and listen for a while,
leave the frantic world behind,
for these things will not last,
and if you snub them you are blind.
For some rich men, gold is beauty,
their ignorance, is their bliss.
They do not care a whit about,
the spreading dawn’s first kiss.
Nor seek such simple pleasures,
as I see around me full about.
But I will keep these treasures;
for them, I could not live without.
