Shine Through

By MaryHall

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Lots of family came by, from far away To see each other now, after all this time Not a tear comes to my eye, that they have gone home They all just waved goodbye, and fell by the wayside Even though we're related How come I don't see much of you Even though we're created The image of God just don't shine through A friend called yesterday, when I wasn't home He hasn't shone his face, for almost a year now He's lost within his pain, and troubled mind I don't know what to say, anyway Even though we're related How come I don't see much of you Even though we're created The image of God just don't shine through We're so divided That the light we cannot see It's so unheard of The divorce of Gods own family Shine through Written December 22nd, 2001 © on Dec 22 2001 06:38 AM PST   20 • 0 • 13
