I placed my hands on the piano and this song played in its entirety. I felt tears roll down my face as I recognized it and thanked God for letting me hear this song from the other side.

HOW CAN LOVE BE DISTANT?
©Julie Rust/Baba’s Music-SESAC

Why do raindrops fall up 
Against the window
When I drive?
And how are clouds suspended
While the wind blows
In the sky?

How can love be distant
From a mother to a child?
Why is it more painful
When the hurt comes from inside?

I don’t know how hurricanes
Can be so violent
As they pass by.
Yet if you’re in the middle
There is silence
In the eye.

How can love be distant 
From a mother to a child?
How can pain be silent
When a heart screams inside?

Why do leaves change color
Right before they die?
Trees show off their beauty
Like a lie

How can love be distant
When you take away the lies?
Keeping nothing hidden
Only love remains inside

I’m glad that there are rainbows
After rainfall
