Looking in the mirror, what do I see?
Another person looking back at me...

A year ago...
"Treat your brothers like you treat yourself"
As though i used my bible gaining dust on my shelf.
I think of the people
I walked passed today
Greeting them with a look
of "Get out of my way!".
What I monster I am
to treat people like that!
What excuse have I got
for this horrible act?
The reason is I'm angry
and hurt, alone and confused,
my heart is broken, torn and bruised...
There are passed situations which have marked my life
tearing me through with the sharpest of knives.

Today...
I will never be healed of the wounds from the stabs
but I don't bleed anymore, all i'm left with are scabs.
I'm stitched up inside like a patched, ragged doll;
When i was torn apart The Tailor answered my call.
I was crying, shouting, screaming with pain,
and in my darkest hour He called out my name.
"it's ok my child, I'm here with you,
i know everything you're going through.
every tear you cry, every heartache you whine,
I express in a storm and an earthquake of mine.
every hurt of yours I feel it too,
every step you take i walk with you.
But please don't give up, take courage, look ahead,"
and as He wiped my tears
he went on and said;
"I moulded your mouth,
your eyes, your nose,
Carefully carved
your fingers and toes...
I pump your heart, make
your blood stream flow,
I smile every second
i watch you grow,
I put so much Love in giving you life;
what makes you think that now I'll step aside?
Remember, It's a promise, whatever you go through,
Cling onto me and I'll pull you through!
I've always been here, I'm here to stay,
I'm here to lead you safe on your way."
