She had dreaded these moments
Long before they came around
Moments of grief and despair
With whispers of disillusionment
Thrown in there for a peppering
Of confusion and trepidation
Feelings that felt so very forbidden
He walked away from her love
Without even saying goodbye to her
Leaving her with only the loss
Of these sweet moments that
Penetrated her imagination with
Joy from being a part of his world
The girl who he’d chosen to love
She missed him like imagination
Wouldn’t possibly comprehend of
Her heart longed for him with a
Suffering that grasped for hope
The way music longs for the note
That welcomes it into harmony
With an inspiration of pure love
Desperate and defeated, she had
Retreated into herself, deep inside
The desperation and sensitive place
Where discouragement grew stronger
And her heart felt lost in the hole
Where anger and bitterness took
Hold of her spirit and hung on
It would be many years before
Hostility and resentment moved on
Leaving her heart with only remorse
For the years she’d spent wanting
More, more than she had within her
Where lived the faith in God’s Son
The answer to her animosity and angst
Faith freed her spirit from the grasp
Of desperation and disenchantment
Memories of a past that slowly grew
To make her realize she had it within
Her heart, all the love that she sought
And should have been giving to others
As the Holy Spirit had given to her
Healed, she was wiser than before
Alive inside where she could go
To discover the answers to her hurt
And the comfort for worries dissolved
By the love that was like no other
Love that came from God’s Son
And helped her to heal from all pain
