PATIENTLY PRAYING FOR YOU

Poetry composed on February 2, 2006

I have been singing songs of youth
In my mind hearing poetries
In my heart feeling stories
Since the first day I met you

Yet all you see was another
All you hear were your own cries
All you feel were your desire
Crying over her ‘Good Byes’

How you had loved her so
How she had said her ‘No’
How she had promised you forever
Yet now she’s found another

I watched your pain silently
Feeling it in my heart seeping
Stabbing… wounding…
Yet amazingly…

There was a rush of strength
As I get down on my knees
And prayed at length
That you may find bliss

The Lord is full of grace
And will find you a place
Where your heart could call home
Where you will never be alone

As for me, all I have is this simple poetry
Where I hide my faith, hope and love
I have always set you free
To fly high like a dove

If you are really mine
One day you will return to me
Perfectly just in time
Where one, the two of us will be

Poem inspired by a friend who is going through this.
