Love At Its Greatest

Love At Its Greatest

A Poem by ShannonElise

My heart is hurting and my lungs are sore. I search for you to heal me,
I wanna breathe you in. I want you to heal this pain filled heart, and
these tortured lungs. But you aren't here. I search and search. I
call out your name, its like your not real. I cry out "Where are you?!"
But still..nothing. I search every corner, every crack. And just
when I had about given up, I hear your voice. It was almost like a
light was finally peeking through the fog. "My child, I am here," you
say. "But you weren't! You left me!" I screamed and anger began to
fill me. But still as gentle and as calm he says back. "Child, I have
been here for you since before you were born. It wasn't me who left
you, it was you who left me." I shake my head. "That's a lie." He just
shook his back and said, "No, its the truth. Have I ever lied?" The
anger dissipated and sorrow replaced it. "I'm sorry," I said as I fell
to my knees. He picked me up and held me tight. "I love you," he
replied. "But how?" I asked. "I left you." He nodded and said with
sadness in his eyes. "You aren't the first and you wont be the last.
And even though you put up a fight you finally came home cause you knew
it was right." Still a little confused I ask him one more thing. "But
why would you forgive me?" With a smile he says, "Because I am
forgiveness, I am love, I am the way, and remember? I made you." With
that I was fine and happy and safe as I felt his embrace, "I love you."
I said. His reply? "I know child. So do I, so do I."

Your stuffs are bit or much emotional. Anyway.. May you stay outta the world of crappy pain. It's a blog writing where you bleed and learn that Humans always make sin which's why they are called Humans but it's God who forgive them for their sins cus, that's why he's called God..he loves his children and he already knows .. children make sins so, he forgives them. What a lovely concept!

Stay Happy, Elly! ;)
