A Month Ago

Only a month ago, we were wrapped in a blanket staring at the stars and in each others eyes too quickly we blinked and time had slipped away.

Only a month ago, we were hoping our resolutions would last and we'd be independent at last but that didn't last.

Only a month ago boys were praying the Seattle Seahawks would win and other boys prayed the patriots would win and both praying that the ice beneath our feet wasn't so thing because they want to be stable.

Only a month ago, I wished on a lucky penny, we said our last goodbye, and thought I'd never hear from him again, but I did.

and Only a month ago, I didn't know what I'd do in a year, and I thought I did but in reality I didn't.

Only a month ago, I decided I could make it, I could get through the hellish storms, so I picked up my bible and got on my knees, and started to pray.

But only today, only today, God answered by  pleads and rested my restless nights and replaced the sad tears in my eyes only with sheer joy.
