My Lifeline

When men have proved 
faulty, untrustworthy, and cruel 
you, my Father, rise to the top
consistently Good and above them all 

I remind myself that every one does not 
delight in seeing me cry
There exists a superior Almighty
that pays a close and caring watchful eye…

When they’ve pushed me aside 
abusing their role and place 
I look up to you, my God
who always treats me with love and grace 

Thank you for being everything 
My strength, my stronghold, and the very anchor of my soul 
Your daughter gets pushed down, gets up, stumbles, gets up, 
and is still determined to never let her best friend go
