WHY DID YOU WALK AWAY?

Shadows so dark,
Clouds that do not hide,
Hidden beauty,
I cannot find.

The days are long,
The pain grieves within,
I wish I can see,
What hides underneath.

I look at my life,
I see my hands have been tied,
I realize the power of sin,
And how it has destroyed me deep inside.

I want to make a change,
I find it to be so hard,
Searching for help,
I look but, I cannot find.

God, I see from afar,
Someone coming my way,
I wonder if she can feel,
How my heart bends and brakes.

God, Can she feel what I feel?
Can she help me in someway?
She looks different from the rest,
Maybe she’ll tell me I don’t have to stay.

God, She looks like a christen,
Maybe she can give me hope,
Maybe I don’t have live like this,
And she can show me to my new home.

God, she’s getting closer,
I can see her clear,
Her standards look strong,
I hope she knows I’m near.

God, My heart bends and brakes,
As she passed by my side,
I was hoping she would see,
How I’m broken deep inside.


As my hidden tears still fall,
I wondered what if I would have called,
Maybe she would have stopped,
Or maybe she just didn’t want to talk.

God, I would have gave you all,
If that lady would of called,
If she would of stopped and said,
God loves you and he needs your all.

God, why could she not see my tears,
How they fell from my heart as she walked near,
Did I do something wrong,
That caused her not to hear.

God, I thought you loved me,
I thought you died for me,
I thought you said you would send someone,
Someone to find and guide me.

God, I guess it’s too late,
And my heart is suppose to beak,
I’m suppose to live life,
With no hope for another day.

God, I wish she would have stopped,
And would have shown me the way,
I was ready to give my all,
And ask you to please stay.

•To all readers: Have you ever wondered what thoughts goes through someone’s mind that you passed by, I do and this is why I sometimes cry. May your burden for the lost grow everyday and that you speak to those that pass your way.
