Things may not always seem so clear

While thinking the one whom you want to be near

And whom you hold in your heart oh so dear

Is slipping away, rendering your soul in fear.

Why do these things always seem to happen to me?

Or am I blind and just cannot see,

The hope I have been clinging to so urgently,

Has gone away, and was just not meant to be?

What if the two souls who found each other,

Was your best friend, and the other your desired lover,

Your love for each unending, as if they were sister and brother,

And I’d rather hurt alone than undeservedly hurt another.

It doesn’t ease my pain, but to this I will soon adjust.

Just need some time, and in God I will always trust.

Prayer will sustain me, help me strive for what’s good and just

Help mend my heart, and remove the greed and the lust.

I need to take a break, concentrate more on me,

Take care of my children, spend more time with family.

I’m really not as strong as some believe me to be,

Just have to place my burdens on Him, learn to rejoice in being…
