She Says...
by Michael Doyle

All the ugly truths
That have tried to push her back
Have tripped her up, since her youth
Until grace gave her all she might lack

Thoughts of how abundance increases
Gave her the hope to move on past
In her story filled with broken pieces
Now she's got peace in her soul and love in her heart

She'll admit to having made some bad choices
As she walked her way past her momentary confusion
Preferring that still small voice over other voices
That try to shine like gold of life's shallow illusion

She smiles sadly, telling her brave story
Though her tears might just fall like rain
Until her face lights up because of the glory
As she claims, sweet victory over her pain

She stands unafraid of baring her honest soul
Every scar turns to stars as she moves on past
Not all of life has been under her best control
But, she's found her way walking in a love that will last

She keeps walking her faith in the true God above
Who has seen and loved her while she walked through hell
And now she has a good man she trust with her love
Sometimes that's all that's needed in the trick of this tale
