Zero

Your Life dreams are shattered,
Now you're gone away.
We've cried here for hours,
And the hours turn to days.
We know you regret this,
Leaving us here,
With portraits and memories
That we've held so dear.

When I hear your name, it's not the same.
No matter what they say, I'm not okay.
And we started at zero, and went different ways.
Now we're all out here wasting away.
And if we started at zero, then how did things change?
It seems like just yesterday we were the same.

.

Why do people have to change? And why does it have to be so painful when they do? I don't have the time or strength to go into detail about this. But why? Why do people have to change? Why did I have to change?

.

Father, I love You. But why does this have to be so hard? Give me strength: to know I'll be okay, to know that I am strong, to know that You're looking out for me. Help me to remember what you promised me. Help me find some way out of this confusing mess. Just bring me some peace of mind, some clarity. I love You, and I know You love me.

I try Daddy, but it's hard.

It's hard to have to start at zero, over and over and over.

It's hard to be hated. Despised. Rejected.

It's hard to live and believe and breathe You 24/7.

It's so hard, but I'm trying. I really am.

Love You forever.

-Erika
