Could you not see
the pain in her eyes?
The heart-stabbing pain
beneath her disguise?
Could you not see
all she needed was love?
A heartfelt example
of God from above?
Could you not see
the signs of her need?
Her tears… sullen face
withdrawal in desperate plea?
Could you not see
you were placed in her life?
Intended for a reason
showing my light?
Could you not see
the chance that passed?
An opportunity wasted
for a difference to last?
Could you not see
there was no tomorrow?
She was left all alone
to drown in her sorrow?
Why can’t you see?
What will it take?
Why rock-bottom to get you to break?
Why can’t you see?
You are given each day
A moment to treasure
Yet wasted away
Why can’t you see?
What will it take?
Why rock-bottom to get you to break?
Why can’t you see?
You aren’t here to hide
But to show My life
Before another dies
