The One above

A glass of wine by my side will be just fine,

Born and raised catholic girl just trying to unwind.

There is no Christmas tree here but the Son is alive and shining brightly in my heart,

it is these very thoughts that keep me going,

it is His promise of a new start.

Touch my face,

I know you think I am pretty,

but if beauty hurts your hateful heart then for you I take no pity,

Hold my hand,

and look upon the dark gray sky,

with its threads of diamonds oh,

take a look in the mirror and you will see that very same glow.

Life gets hard,

buckets of bruises and blood may trip you up,

but even at your emptiest there is one who will fill your cup.

Oh thirsty heart I hold you dear,

with every sorrow and every tear,

I love your dull and I love your shine,

because you are my child,

you are mine oh mine.

The winters get cold and the limbs ache,

oh they ache,

but I will love you forever,

your are a soul that will never break.

Your heart may be heavy dear and the seconds may seem like hours,

but look what I haven given you in these stars and here in this dear flower..

A beauty untold,

and a hand that is never cold,

I will hold you forever and your story will be told.

Look to the sky and you will see a grace that never dies,

I’m a mother and a father and I have heard your desperate cries.

I have given you gifts,

they are in everything you touch and everything that you see,

So when you are at your lowest,

just think of me,

remember me..
