A year ago, but Within is God

Time flys by so fast,

As if right under your nose,

You're already growing up.

The pain that was once there is nothing.

Just plain bad memories.

Memories that you ought not to

Regret nor forget, because from

That pain, those memories,

You learn to not only smile thru hard times, but to move on in life.

Just a year ago I had my girls,

All 6 of them of course.

The fights no longer memorable,

For there is only space for the

Laughs and the smiles

And yes there was a time when

Id go home and cry,

When Id have thoughts to only die.

But honestly a year ago,

I thought I wouldnt last

I thought Id die from

My thoughts that were always chasing

Thru the nightmares and reality

A year ago I didnt think Id survive.

But here I am,

Healthy and taken,

At times still a bit sad,

And sometimes those thoughts

Come running once again,

And I no longer have my friends,

Right here beside me,

but in my heart they do lay.

A year ago Id never picture my life like this, but this is how it is, this is how it was meant to be, and to God I give thanks for smiling down on me.
