There's a girl in the corner with tear stains on her eyes from the places she's wandered and the shame she can't hide She says, "How did I get there? I'm not who I once was and I'm crippled by the fear that I've fallen too far to love" But don't you know who you are, what's been done for you? Yeah, don't you know who you are? You are more than the choices that you've made, You are more than the sum of your past mistakes, You are more than the problems you create, You've been remade Well she tries to believe it that she's been given new life but she can't shake the feeling that it's not true tonight She knows all the answers and she's rehearsed all the lines and so she'll try do to better but then she's too weak to try But don't you know who you are?

Jesus there are so many unspoken words in my heart… if I put them all together, they would form a story. A beautiful story of a mother, my mother whom I deeply-deeply loved. But I never spoke those words Jesus. I never did. I kept them all for one day, a special occasion…that never came. I would have loved one more day with her…to say the words that burns in my heart, the love I had for her from the start. I would buy her lilies, tulips and roses and tell her how I see her perfect reflection in them. I would tell her I wish I could carry all her many burdens I would tell her I never meant to cause her any heartaches or pain I would tell her I wished she never knew illness, sorrows or shame   that she taught me well, that I am so proud to call her ‘mother’ ...that she was the best thing that ever happened to me! I would tell her I love her with my whole heart, over and over again. I would love her in a way she deserved to be loved… I never did any of the above....
