Come Back to Us



With sixty years of pain and hurt showing in every wrinkle on her face
A woman who has battled her demons with great success
Only to have God turn the tables once again

A woman with great strength and courage brought to her knees once again
The loss of a loved one and the looming loss of another so close together
Her demons are back and winning crushing her spirit all over again

Beauty all around her but invisible covered with darkness and pain
An inspiration to her daughters, granddaughters, and great granddaughters
All of them sick with sorrow for they miss her smile and hope and encouragement that is no longer there

The love of many men have destroyed her in the past and now the love she craved is destroying her again
She can't see past the pain and value the treasures in front of her.
Hiding and running as she has so many times before

So many fear there is not any more fight left in her and her loss will be there loss as well
Giving too much power to the hurt and pain leaving her lost and alone
What we would do to have her back with us again.

Too many times we have seen her pain and too many times we are unable to help
Love is never enough to pull her up and out of her misery
God is her only answer and she has lost her faith and is angry that she is loosing so much at once



Oh how we pray for that strong loving woman who taught us to keep going no matter how hard it is
We pray for peace and faith to re enter her heart and let her live instead of dying with those she has lost or will loose
