shoes

Sometimes I wonder how I have made it this far, life sure handed out a pretty bad hand to me,
I have tried to play it the best I could,
I am strong because I had to be.
If you had to walk a mile in my shoes maybe you would not be so quick to judge me,
Maybe you would understand me the good, the bad, and the down right ugly.
I am who I am today because I had to be.
See the shoes I am walking in are not easy to fill,
I don't think you understand that, I don't think you ever will.
These shoes are hard to deal with at times, but all i can do is keep putting one foot in front of the other, one step at a time,
I am not sure why God gave me theses shoes to wear, but I have to deal with it the best way I can, because they are mine.
With all the pain I have been through it is amazing that I can still stand tall,
Because I feel like for years I have been walking around in shoes that are 10 sizes to small,
My shoes are broken , worn down, old, and falling apart,
Much like my heart.
Anytime you think that you can walk in my shoes better than me I would gladly let you wear my shoes,
But the difference between you and me is I would help you learn to walk in them, I would not be there to judge you.
