Sadness fills a smile
that lost was found
only to be lost again -
too many times she’s tried
to understand
the losses she’s felt -
there are no answers
that come to mind -
there’s an emptiness
that fills her heart -
she can’t figure out why
though if she were truthful to herself
she would probably admit
that which hurts too much to let go -
she wonders why life has been
such a struggle of sorts
when it could have been so beautiful
like the lives she sees
in the eyes of strangers -
an empty reflection in the mirror -
a death of sorts is all one can see
in her eyes as they know too much has
torn – worn her down
to such depth of emptiness inside -
she feels anger in its place
where love should have been -
she struggles to understand why
then she looks to the one
who could have made things
so different for her
and figures all she has is her demise
until she finds truth from Him -
the answers to all the why’s
that never come -
she hopes by then someone
will be able to fill her
with the answers that never come.
