Unexpected Shifts
December 30, 2012
The man above never warned me
Things not wanted given
Things given not wanted
Mistakes made,history replayed
Lives taken away, hearts crushed everyday
Yet I keep a smile on my face
Head held high every time I cry
Tears of the blessed in war
It’s hard to love, my heart is sore
Run from love, hide from fear
Show no sign of love over here
