The realization brought a choking to my throat.
My eyes swelled in tears.
The realization came to me fully
that I will never be loved like that again.
The youthful memory of having a woman look at me like that again.
The reflection of a hero in her eyes.
Reflected also in the shining armor of a knight.
Ah sweet memories
if only the taste of those kisses
could return again,
would I know again
the joy of love.

Amidst the crowd
I looked up from my thoughts
and there you were.
The smile told me
you were watching over me.
Caring for me
Loving me from afar
protecting me.
It was a flash from eternity
that allowed me this vision.
Thank you God
for not forgetting me
and continuing
to Love me.

I have been where you are
a hell of loneliness and despair.
Had I created this place in my past
as you are now
where I was once?
I ask myself what pains cross your mind
as this day of many comes to you?
Do you hunger?
Are you without sleep?
The night only brings fear for your life.
Are you without anyone who cares
where you are this day?
Are you missed?
I too have been where you are.
From ashes of the mind did thou raise me
from a pit of worldly hell.
It was not my talents of mind
nor spirit that lead me from this dark world.
It was my prayers.
You never failed to hear me
when I cried out to you.
When I tried to end this life
you spoke gently to me
asking me to be patient
and wait one more day.
One day lead to another.
Finally the sun began to shine again
in your blessings and your love for me.
Thank you Lord
for giving hope to the hopeless
as you gave to me.
Thank you Lord
for loving me when I was without love.
Yea Lord without your grace
would I now be lost.

One day
We will walk the path of light.
Unsure if our Lord will be pleased with us.
Will we be met with an embrace of Love
or will we see disappointment in the Face of our Saviour?
Least we forget the gifts of our Lord.
Will we be judged
on how we shared His gifts?

Many so called “Friends in Life are really wolves in Sheep’s Clothing.” Beware of those “I Love You’s” from Friends.
