LAST NIGHT I CRIED AND I DON'T KNOW WHY
THINGS IN LIFE AREN'T GREAT BUT THEY AREN'T BAD
THERE ARE SOME THINGS I SURELY WISH I HAD
AND I HAVE NO PROBLEM GETTING BY
BUT LAST NIGHT I CRIED...
I CAN'T EXPLAIN THAT FEELING I FELT
THAT 1ST TEAR DROP THAT STAINED MY FACE
LORD I PRAYED YOUR AMAZING GRACE
FALL UPON ME TO REMOVE THIS WELT
YET STILL LAST NIGHT I CRIED...
I THOUGHT ABOUT MY ENTIRE DAY
WHAT DID I DO THAT CAUSED THIS
WAS IT SOMETHING SAID, SOMETHING I MISSED
I DIDN'T KNOW JUST WHAT TO SAY
YET STILL LAST NIGHT I CRIED...
IT STRUCK ME HARD BUT NOW I SEE
I AM JOYFUL, HAPPY AS CAN BE
I DIDN'T THINK THIS COULD BE ME
BUT LAST NIGHT I CRIED BECAUSE I'M FREE
**THANK YOU LORD**

The name STORM describes my chaotic and unpredictable nature. My GEMINI mind is ALWAYS running. Here you will find the twists, turns & adversities of my life including weight loss/fitness, natural hair care, my son's incarceration, firearm instruction and simply moving along my Journey to 50. May 2019 I obtained my B.S. in Converged Communications and now I am learning to love again. This will be interesting and to it all I say BRING IT!
INSIDE I CRIED
The day fire caught hold of my soul
The day I became half and no longer whole
The day I look back to more often than not
The day at some point I'd thought I'd forgot
The day I laid down all I could for another
The day I seperated from my father and mother
The day I left behind my sisters and brother
A day like NO day-like NO day of another
The day I realized at that point I was grown
The day I realized I was all on my own
The day I felt weak but had to stand strong
The day I remember, it just all seemed wrong
The day I watched the scene change...all alone
The day I didn't feel like QUEEN of my throne
The day my existence became so smothered
A day like NO day - like NO day of another
Words escaped my existence that day
My cries, my plies, my persistence that day
If you would just embrace me that day
It was oh so hard to face you that day
Head dropped in shame as the tears fell that day
It didn't feel the same, full of fear on that day
Not realizing my life was changed on that day
How you took away all of my sins on that day
I smile all the time as I think of that day
I gave my life to you on that day
Never again to look back on that day
For my life was on the right track as of that day
Father I thank you for all that you've done
For sending us down your only Son
So we no longer have to suffer the price
For this is the reason your Son gave his life
He bore it all on the cross, for us He died
And for this very reason INSIDE I CRIED
