He was always there….

Blinded, can’t find your way

Thinking, you have come this far by yourself

Did you not know, you were never alone

When it seems you were standing alone

He never left your side

He was your shelter

You were always wrapped in his arms

He gently set you down

smiled into your eyes

And now you see

Yes, he is always there. Such a beautiful piece that inspires hope, Shirley. Loved how you constructed this: you begin with “Blinded” and end with “see”.

Nobody told me the road would be easy, and they didn’t tell me it would be this hard, either. good poem.
