My love in my heart died
And then it filled with sadness
Many people asked me why
My life began flowing with madness

They gave me their love and hugs
But I knew they weren't divine
I felt as if my life was full of bugs
And my mouth was a straight line

I kept moving day by day
With a scowl and a fowl look
And spend my time planning on running away
I feel like dirt and soot

Till' one day Jesus tugged at my heart
And I knew that I could have a brand new start.

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."
