Her God


Things are not what it seems Sometimes we’re just a person’s dream You see yourself as a misfit But take a look at your life again After you get done reading this shit You have nothing to talk if you’re a rich kid This is about a person whose life was given And she almost risked it To understand her story You just have to live it Smiles can really deceiving She smiles all the time How she does it is intriguing A dad who wasn’t even there Mom found out that he was leaving Through everything that she’s been seeing She has a life that’s hard to believe in The story she told will be unfold With her darkness that shines like gold Her love and passion is amazingly bold Six months premature Doctor said her life will be done for sure Only two pounds, small as a fist They had no hopes, that was it But her mother resists Making sure the baby’s life will be one that exist Nurtured and love unconditionally Her mother left in a year eventually Taken in by strangers “Uncle” and “Auntie” As she grows she knows Her life isn’t what it’s suppose It gave her nothing and left her alone So she questioned her birth Is her existence really what it’s worth The hopes her mother has put Lost and feeling unloved Without her mom, the emotional needs wasn’t enough No love is like her mother’s love Life keeps getting tough Then fights broke out between them Being in and out of the house was rough Now this is when things fall apart for real Now she’s figuring out ways to deal With all the pain that she feels Suicidal thoughts, depression reveals She grabs a bottle of pills She gets a chill Thinking her want for happiness would be fulfilled She sits still staring at these pills She fears that it could get herself killed But through the years she has fought She throws the bottle Having second thoughts Second thoughts given from God She saw that her life was a miracle She can’t waste God’s creation The love from Him is subliminal Her happiness is from Him It’s incredibly incredible God created a gifted individual Her story is exceptional She’s staying loyal and faithful She’s staying blessed and grateful Her God is her life The happiness is truly inside Smiles are there for reasons God’s been with her through the seasons God’s in her heart and mind Her is happiness is really divine “Life is too short to not be smiling all the time”
