Waterlilies Dancing In The Dark



A tinge of tears falling from their eyes releasing the pain. You have to be set free, so you’re dancing away what hardly anyone recognizes in the dark. I call you waterlilies, a breath of youth that raises themselves.

Ephesians 6:4
Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.
