Alone on the park bench she sits
Wishing for a second chance on love
Her husband, long gone
Called early to the Lord above
And though she misses him dearly
It's been six years in the past
Since her romance turned to tragedy
You never know how long things will last
So she lives like there's no tomorrow
Her heart ready for a second chance
Her mind swimming with thoughts
She gets lost in its trance
She thinks back to the times
Of her mom and dad, her childhood home
Seeing her mom go through the abuse
Her dad, breaking her bones
But she regrets not the past
For it made her a stronger woman today
And even when things got dark
She never forgot to pray
It's her blind faith that keeps her going
Knowing not what tomorrow may hold
Never doing anyone any harm
Knowing that it may come back ten fold
She knows that she's beautiful
Because inside her heart, she's unique
She's like a rare flower
That has gathered together in a boutique
She comes to this park because
She likes the way the wind caresses her face
And the beauty of nature
In her eyes, takes shape
Only thing missing is love
Someone to hold her hand, make her smile
And she will keep sitting here waiting
Knowing that when it comes, the wait will be worthwhile
