In The Lyrics of a Song

It’s funny how music seems to tell her story from time to time
 without the singers and or songwriters even knowing they’ve done so
She recently heard a song by Lisa Scinta which sounds like
it could’ve been a page right out of her journal
A page of pain and a broken heart that
seemed and at times still seems  
as if it may never heal    
A page written before she knew
 how to truly forgive those she loves 

When she first heard Lisa sing this song
 she thought “Oh, not another sad love song”
Then she replayed it hearing
 her own story in the lyrics of a song
Lisa’s angelic voice making them all the more beautiful

Hers is a story of loss turned into strength
A brother taken to be with God far too soon
 though she still looks for the answer every day
A family whose lives have pulled its members in different directions  
  at times making her ask, why can’t I hold us together?
Then she realizes like Lisa’s lyrics say
“I can’t fix this on my own”
