I SEE HER STRUGGLING TO HOLD ON,

AND FIGHTING JUST TO MAINTAIN

HER FUTURE NO LONGER HERS

ALL SHE DOES NOW; IS IN HIS NAME
 

THIS TINY SEED;

GROWING IN HER WOMB

NOW HER LINK TO A BETTER FUTURE

NO LONGER HEADED TO HER TOMB

DARK DAYS OF HER PAST

TRY TO CHASE HER IN HER DREAMS

BUT SHE HOLDS TIGHT TO A BETTER FUTURE

NEW HOPES AND BETTER DAYS

SHE HAS FOUGHT FOR MANY YEARS

TO GET THIS MONKEY OFF HER BACK

SO MANY MISTAKES MADE ALONG THE WAY

BUT NOW SHE LOOKS FORWARD

NO LONGER LOOKING BACK

IT’S A DAILY BATTLE JUST TO KEEP MOVING

TO GET UP AND FACE EVERY DAY

BUT NOW I SEE JOY IN HER EYES; NO LONGER DAZED AND PAINED,

EVERY TIME SHE SPEAKS OF HIM, OR SAYS HIS NAME

I AM SO PROUD OF HER MY BABY GIRL

AND I PRAY SHE KNOWS; SHE IS NOT ALONE

FOR ALL ALONG I HAVE BEEN THERE PRAYING

PRAYING WITH ALL I AM

THAT MY FATHER WOULDN’T CALL HER HOME

DEMONS MAY SEEK TO DESTROY HER

TEAR HER DOWN AND CLAIM HER SOUL

BUT NOT TODAY, NOR TOMORROW

FOR SHE IS FINALLY FOUND HER REASON

FOR HOLDING ON; HER REASON FOR STAYING STRONG

SO FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE FIGHTING

FIGHTING JUST TO MAINTAIN

IF YOU CAN’T LOVE YOUR SELF ENOGH TO FIGHT

THEN I PRAY YOU HAVE SOMEONE FIGHTING IN YOUR NAME

BECAUSE BATTLES WILL ALWAYS BE THERE

THEY WILL COME AND GO EVERY DAY

BUT IF YOU HOLD ON AND PRAY IN FAITH BELEIVING

OUR FATHER ABOVE WILL HELP YOU MAINTAIN!       Bree 1.15.2013
