coffee, breeze, & friends...

sipping my coffee sweet breeze on my face,

thinking about all the beauty i've missed

just because of a silly mistake -

dwelling on sad things and ignoring God's grace.

sorrow may come, and for a while may stay

beating me down til i no longer can stand,

trials may break me and i may fail

i may find it hard to endure each passing day.

and though i am sure i will fail constantly,

i may be blind every day of my life

to all i've been blessed with and all He provides,

i know He has placed friends to be there for me.

~

they are the ones who help me through trials

get me on track when i've wander for miles.

they are the ones who know my heart's cry

and remind me of it when all my passion has died.

when life is a mess and my emotions are high,

when all i want is to give up and die,

they are the ones who refuse to say no
when i don't know where else to go

whether argue or love or laugh or cry
they each help me in some way and i
don't know what i would do without 'em
don't know how i'd get through life without them
