Living in a shelter as a family is hard, You feel like you're always on guard. Hoping and praying this is a short phase, That soon you will see better days.
Trying to stay strong for your kids, So they don't realize your life is on the skids. Trusting God and keeping hope alive. So all will know you did survive.
Well all seems lost and all have turned you away. Keep trusting God everyday. Keep your Faith strong, So you know that you can go on.
Shelter life sucks I can say, I hope no one else has to do this one day. I know this trial will be over in time, Hopefully before I lose my mind.

Standing Still
There are very few moments in life where time truly stands still. When your breath is taken from your chest and your body hangs weightless in that moment. Just long enough for it to stay with you from that day onwards. Deep in the red sands of the Australian Outback, I found that moment and clung to it forever.
