"To You From Me"

Many years have gone by in my life,
Lord knows how I made it through some.
I've seen death in the world,
It's knocked on many a door.
I've cried tears of the loss of many!
Anger controlled, at times in those years,
Taking over faith dwelling deep into my soul.
At times I've wanted to just throw it all away!
No one seemed to listen,
No one seemed to care.
I wondered why, no answer was there!
But something kept on driving me,
even through the hell.
There seemed to be a spark still burning inside.
Many have tried to take it from me,
But I couldn't let it die!
I knew there was a purpose to be known,
I just didn't understand it at times,
Yet now the secret has been shown.
We are all shown visions,
God shows us this!
Sometimes we don't understand,
At times some don't listen!
If I'm able to search my soul within,
Others surely can do the same.
We've all been through some type of pain in our lives,
Yet we all can overcome these moments.
You got to hold to your faith,
Don't let it fade away.
People at times don't seem to care,
I know this well!
But maybe you should think of them in this way,
They have been through the pain and hell!
Try to help others when you can see they are in need,
Maybe one day it's very possible-it's you they'll see!
Love is the answer and the power we all have inside,
It can change the world,
In a minute, or a second,
Like the twinkling of an eye!
This is for all of you, to you from me!
I'm showing you, who I am, what I feel inside!
I'm hoping you will understand this,
Please, "DON'T LET THE LOVE DIE"

Dedicated to all of you!
