Life as the weather moves to a new season
Summer leaves before saying goodbye
Her warmth and light fades away
Thoughts of sunshine brings rain of tears
My sadness rises and I cry
Uncontrolled and through my humanity
I know my Father wants me to be happy
But the burden of life wears on me
Where I am in this life, disappointments and regrets
So I cry
From deep inside myself
A flood of memories shakes me
Financial handcuffs imprison my dreams
Reaffirming I pray
Faith wipes away tears
Prayer soothes my mind
The Spirit fills and feeds my soul
Again I start to cry
Tears of joy because of blessings received and ones to come
