A YEAR AGO TODAY

A YEAR AGO TODAY

A year ago today

The thought of her existence brought tears in her eyes

The pain that clenched her chest kept her up every night

Her mind was caged but it still ran wild

Smile on her face but tears in her soul

A year ago today she didn’t know your love

She didn’t know you shared in her hurt

She didn’t think you understood

Her mind told her you turned away from her

And on nights like this she laid in her bed and cried till she couldn’t

She didn’t think you heard her when she prayed every night

A year ago today she didn’t understand your love

So, she couldn’t give you all her pain

A year ago today she didn’t love as much

Thank you for your grace

And for that love she couldn’t understand today she craves

Still, take her deeper father

That love she still does not fully understand

But today she feels it more.
