I Still Cry

[RoadtoRecovery]

Itʼs been some time since I moved out

I still hear the echoes of when weʼd shout

I guess I never though it would end this way

I still think back to our hopes and dreams

Nothing is as what it seems

I guess thereʼs really nothing more to say

 

Its been some time but as hard as I try

I still cry

 

I long for the times when weʼd embrace

Just once more to touch your face

I never wanted to really say goodbye

Where are my childrenʼs laughter and voices?

How could I have made such poor choices?

Now Iʼm left to constantly wonder why.

 

The hurt goes on and as hard as I try

I still cry

 

But the strength in me knows itʼs time

To say goodbye and begin the climb

To another and yet different life ahead

Godʼs love will carry me on

Heʼll show me the way from hereon

Itʼs through His guidance that I am led.

 

A smile breaks though the tears from my eyes

I still cry
