Uneven Odds

I once knew your father well

He fought tears as he spoke

“Your mother’s dead”

I guess a part of him just couldn’t return

Forgiveness is a lesson

He cursed you to learn

As your guardian

I was instructed well

To make sense of God’s love

In these fires of hell

No I don’t expect you to understand

Just to live what little life

Your broken heart can

Maybe your light is a sea

And the darkness the dirt

In spite of the uneven odds

Beauty lives from the earth

From the earth

From the earth

As the years move on

These questions they will shape

Are you getting stronger

Or is time shifting weight

No one expects you to understand

Just to live what little life

Your mended heart can

You’ll always remember the moment

God took her away

The weight of the world

Was placed on your shoulders that day

Maybe your light is the sea

And the darkness the dirt

In spite of the uneven odds

Beauty lives from the earth

From the earth

You’re much too young now

So I write these words down

“Darkness exists to make light truly count”
