Blameless

I think I know now what grandma meant

When she said she hadn’t changed inside.

The woman in the mirror is different,

But her spirit still young and spry.

I met you once upon a time

And our lives took different paths,

But like boomerangs destined to return,

The love of our Father brought us back.

You and I had fallen so far.

We both were longing for a change

But looking in your eyes that day,

I could not see the mistakes you made.

I know you’ve had your doubts

About struggling or doing wrong,

But my love for you refuses to

See anything beyond your heart.

I see the you that fought for others,

That tried to help at any cost.

I see the you before the doubt,

I see you blameless and renewed.

This isn’t blindness, my eyes don’t judge

They look beyond the mirror view.
