Thank You Lord
Thank you for the confusion Lord,
— and thank you for the doubt
Thank you for all those unsure moments,
— when I could neither whisper nor shout
Thank you for the people Lord,
— those who loved me or hated in vain
But thank you most for the girl I wed,
— the one who took away my pain
(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2015)
