THE MIRROR THING by Rusty Cason These words I wrote to ease my pain, My spirit felt contrite. I tried to show my better side, With all my worldly might. Instead of sharing from the heart, In each and every way. I shared with those I love the most My stress from work each day. My family loved me just the same, Even my ugly side. They tolerated angriness That made them want to hide. While sadness was my only friend outside my family life. My anger and frustration flowed On both my kids and wife. One day I sat and thought about My sad and angry state. In overwhelming guilt I knew That change would be my fate. I gave my life to God that day, He helped me learn control. Then loves true meaning came to me It shines throughout my soul. A mirror hangs on my front door I see my face each day. It makes me think about myself And how I want to stay. Is your life filled with emptiness Is sadness what you bring? I recommend you seek the Lord, Then do the mirror thing. |
