Words are uttered from afar

They leave without a scar

They’re sent to heaven above

They’re all we can think of

Silence fills the air

Giving us much more to share

We reveal every need

And the best way to succeed

Our voices in the distance

Meet with very little resistance

We try to gain strength

By talking at length

Suddenly we see

What’s truly meant to be

We all look ahead

Without an ounce of dread

It helps us heal

Makes us see what’s real

We continue the journey

Meant for us only

We find a place

Filled with mercy and grace

We find our purpose

Lying at the surface

Despite our naysayers

We continue with our prayers

We’re filled to the core

Then we receive more

We stand tall

Before we make another call

We learn to sit still

As we accept God’s will

We finally find our way

And we cherish every day

Life gets better

We embrace it to the letter

We take one step at a time

While still in our prime

There’s a lot to share

When God answers a prayer
