To You I Pray

To You I Pray

A Poem by BL

To you I pray
for you know all,
and all about me.
You are me, you made me, you’ve been there before.
So teach me,
please.
I think about you and wonder.
Where did you go? I wish you were here.
I need you so much.
But I don’t know you,
so far.
Such distance separates us,
our bodies, our hearts and minds,
yet, you’d say, I’m with you my son and always will be.
And you, you’d have nothing to say.
Alas, if I only knew where to look.
Father? Father? Where are you? Can you help me?
Because this can’t be right, I believe it’s all a dream.
And someone is just pulling at my strings,
a puppet to the ways of the world.
So within this dream, I dream
that if you were here, if you’d teach me
You’d save me.

This is from the heart, you can tell. I believe that things written from the heart and felt most deeply, are the most beautiful types of writing. I felt every word.

Oh this is so beautiful...even more so because my own heart has ached with these same feelings.
Sometimes talking with Him just isn't satysfying enough. Sometimes I just want to be held.
Wonderful, wonderful.
Thank you so much for sharing.
