If I were you I&#039;d promise to live life for all it&#039;s worth, take all you&#039;ve been given and leave your mark upon this Earth. Trust your heart to show you everything you need...and if you were you, I&#039;d fall in love with me. -unknown<br /> <br /> <br /> fear not, for I am with you;<br /> <br /> <br /> be not dismayed, for I am your God;<br /> <br /> I will strengthen you, I will help you,<br /> <br /> <br /> I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.<br /> (Isaiah 41:10 ESV)


Each tear was a story untold
Of the sadness she could no longer hold
She cried at night when no one could hear
Holding her pillows she shed the tears

She shut people out
Pushed them away
She didn’t want anybody to stay

She was afraid of the pain
That could come again
The hurt that was given by a friend

Her grades went down
As her pain went up
She thought about ending it
But knew that was dumb

As the days went by
She wondered why
She deserved the gift
A friend had bestowed

The gift of sorrow
The gift of tears
The gift of letting nobody near

Cus the tears were great
And the pain was worse
And she did not want
To relive the hurt

So she pushed people away
Never lets them in
Because she dosent want to relive
the gift from a friend
