Resurrection

I remember the death
of her past filled with hurt,
a soul set on fire
made way for rebirth.
Her eyes bright and kind
despite all they've seen,
soft wrinkles around them
hint to where she's been.

If you could just see it
you could understand,
a feeling impossible to quit
or barely comprehend.

Her smile slightly crooked
beautiful just the same,
wakes up every room
living up to her name.
Her hands feel like paper
folded many times,
a magnificent story
is told through those lines.

If you could just see it
you could understand,
a feeling impossible to quit
or barely comprehend.

Her heart full of joy
from the right kind of wrong,
the lessons she's learned
have made her this strong.
I remember the birth
of her life filled with light,
and to know she is you
makes everything right.

If you could just see it
you could understand,
a feeling impossible to quit
or barely understand.
