bearing the storm

You bore with the storm

That tore everything away

Because it is useless to argue

With the will of God

And your life has meaning

Even in the emptiness

Who knows the way of things

For there is a plan

And we are the fragile ones

Learning the best we can

To turn our sails

Towards that changing breeze

That carries us home

My weariness now shows me

The wrong way to go

Its time to listen

Still I love and hope

That one day you will want me

In your life

But then hope sometimes falls

Into an abyss

Never the less I choose

Love

And tenderness

For now that the storm is clearing

Even without you near

I finally see

My own precious glimpse

Of heaven
