In Return

In Return

A Poem by Mercedes Childers

I have dropped the world right at my feet
He picked it up and handed it back to me

I walked through hell and back again
He walked with me and held my hand

He found a place that I couldn’t see
He brought me there and shared it with me

He found the light I couldn’t find
He opened my heart so I could enjoy the sight

When he watches this world fall
I try my best to be at his call

Every time he walks through hell
I’ll hold his hand and all the way out

And there’s a place I found just for us
Inside my heart, I’ll always trust

There’s a light I know he just can’t see
And I hope to bring it out for him, just so he can see what I see

Because what I see is the best thing that has ever happened to me.

Normally, I'm not one for writing books, but I am a Singer/Song Writer, so poetry(in the form of lyrics) comes naturally. I do read sometimes, and my favorite book is either "The Bodies We Wear" by Je.. more..
