Hand in Hand

Contributed by FragileStrength on Saturday, 16th January 2010 @ 05:26:14 AM in AEST
Topic: spiritual

Ever since she was a little girl
her little fingers bound them together.
He whispered to her words of love
and she knew he'd be with her forever.

But the little girl gained worldly knowledge
and her grip loosened on his hand.
She walked with him but knowledge caught her
telling her without him she could stand.

One day she slipped out of his grasp
and down the rabbit hole she went.
Breathing in her new found freedom
wondering where the hell she'd been sent.

The place she lived made her act different
and she laughed at the old world above.
But she remembered stories someone told her
and a man whispering words of love.

She gasps when her hand grasps air
knowing what she left behind.
As she tries to climb up they pull her down
to keep her from the love she'd find.

She slips and climbs and slips again
knowing now without him she can't stand.
When she gets out she realizes he pulled her up
and they walk away hand in hand.

This sounds like my walk with God too. I have days where I feel I can deal with life on my own when in reality I can't. I really enjoyed this knowing I can relate to you. God bless you,
