The value of life
I thought about
While in the shower
One morning
And I thought
It is not the things
That I have
That make a difference
It’s me
For the ones that would come
When I pass away
For the tears they would shed
For the empty space in their hearts
For love
The value of life
The smiles I gave
The hugs, the love we all shared
Not things
So I set out to right all the wrongs
To replace frowns
With smiles
And a warm forgiving heart
The value of life
Seeing God in a sunrise
The beauty of His smile
In a flower
And you
For I value you
Above myself
For your friendship
For your hugs, for your love
My value
