thank you for all your smiles
we love you! |
There’s always been this big meaning A ruckus of noise in the background Sometimes we can hear the angels singing Then one day: no sound. A pin drops.. Noise implodes! The world rocks… Every door slams closed! -- We could always feel the presence Always knew somehow, it would be ok Clockwork with sun and moon But out of this darkness, there was no day. Certainty shattered. Faith absconded. Passion smothered ‘neath snow; Hearts broken round the globe. Singular sobering moment Out of the haze into the fog When our smiles are taken from us Where is our God? Every question asked By every heartbeat, every breath Though we know the bible’s answers Knowledge has yet to reconcile death What cliché must we recite to ourselves When our children know better than we That God did not take our loved one Just to add to his angel army He can snap his fingers As we’ve been told And create an army A thousandfold Heal the sick at Sunday service Fill the sanctuary with his presence And when we bleed and breathe and pray He still left us on that day To be like JOB and suffer still And still stay strong and say I will Believe in HIM and proclaim Satan a Liar And walk out stronger from the Fire 11:49p.m. 02/10/13 headntheclouds copyright 2013 |
