The Girl
There once was a girl,
All tiny and shy;
Happy in all,
She never had to cry.
*****
Small, but big,
All strong and bold;
Always helping others,
With a heart of gold.
*****
From hope, prayers,
And help from above;
The girl searched,
Until she fell in love.
*****
Faithful and true,
She honored her man;
Loving and caring,
For the ring on her hand.
*****
As time went on,
The dark clouds came;
And the love she had,
Didnt feel the same.
*****
Scared to death,
Of the love she had lost;
Angry and confused,
She had long paid the cost.
*****
Hurting deep down,
And long withdrawn;
She cried all night,
And sometimes until dawn.
*****
She searched for answers,
In every way;
By living her life,
From day to day.
*****
The clouds were gone,
And winter became spring;
And the girl had hope,
Of what summer would bring.
*****
After all was done,
And all shed been through;
The love shed lost,
Had become brand new.
