Without a single glint of fear on my face I would take your place
trade my shoes for yours and let you walk miles on miles in mine
I know you’re where you’re needed most even if it hurts
We took for granted your presence and now all that’s left is the past
I use to believe you knew everything
any question I had would be yours for the taking you could tell me that the sky’s purple and I’d go to war just to prove you right because in my eyes you knew no wrong
now the only questions you can hear is through my prayers and the only questions I ask are unspoken, left unanswered just for you
I don’t believe in god but I’ve always believed in you
You always told me you’re never alone as god walks beside you but in my mind he was always like your shadow watching your every move just like I did footstep after footstep
I look for answers in your writing hoping to see something new or something I’ve missed but the only thing I’m missing is your heartbeat close to mine
You told god to see us through but the only way I ever saw him was through you
So I still don’t believe in god
but Vanessa I’ll believe in him for you
Amen
-for Vanessa love love love ❤️
