A Change
A change has come,
the nights bring new winds.
The morning heals the tears,
that came from times of whims.
Desires come to fall,
and the heart realizes it’s pain.
The warmth of truth comforts,
while the demons within refrain.
The children have all grown,
and the cries of them have past.
Now life has dreamed new dreams,
to show each new hope at last.
What now can we believe,
when once our fears overtook.
What need can we proclaim,
without His open book?
The day has drifted to sleep,
the night has comforted my tears.
But now the truth has arrived,
and brought closure to my fears.
No one can see faith,
it whispers in the winds.
But the heart feels what is more,
and the soul can no longer pretend.
If I had not believed in You,
the years would be much longer.
And now that I have accepted You,
I feel Your words feed my hunger.
It is not pain that subsides,
it is truth that comes stronger than hurt.
It is not love that washes my tears,
it is acceptance that cleans the dirt.
This transition of growth becomes true,
when all else is weak and frail.
But the strength of hope lives on,
while the night leaves new dreams that trail.
