I Don’t Know Why…

I don’t know why…

but I know it is changing me.

I don’t know why…

but I know it is making me more aware.

I don’t know why…

but I know it is worth fighting to get through.

I don’t know why…

but I’m learning.

I don’t know why…

but it has changed my prayer life.

I don’t know why…

but I’m clinging tighter to hope.

I don’t know why…

but I wish things were different.

I don’t know why…

I don’t even know what I’ve done.

I don’t know why…

but I know I can’t lose focus.

I don’t know why…

but I have to keep my head above water.

I don’t know why…

but the voices—the voices.

I don’t know why…

but I have to quit answering that question.

I don’t know why…

I may never know.

I don’t know why…

I can hardly see my next step.

I don’t know why…

I don’t know how it will turn out.

I don’t know why…

but I’d like to, though.

I don’t know why…

but even if I did, would it really matter?

I don’t know why…

but even if I did, would it change things?

I don’t know why…

but would it help me fight better?

I don’t know why…

but would it solve the issues?

I don’t know why…

but if I did, I’d still be in this valley.

I don’t know why…

but I do know my Savior.
