To Remember



I close my eyes to remember what I cannot see
Turning anxious thoughts into a joyful memory
To often we forget all that we've been given
To often we stop to question, instead of simply living
Many moments that are precious are lost and never returned
Because we think to much of ourselves until the lessons are to late learned
The struggle in front of us doesn't have to be faced alone
Its the trust we put in our faith that will successfully lead us along.
