Curtis Johnson Poet Free verse

A Silent Prayer

To you, He is many things, too numerous to mention
But for now, He's a confidant beyond and above all others
He's the God whom you have learned to acknowledge and love
Not a human with whom at times you may have issues of trust
Not a human with whom there may be difficulties of understanding
Not a human, even the best of friends, who may render 'judgments'
He's your Lord and Savior, through whose name you approach The Father
He's your Heavenly Father with whom you have the best of a loving 
relationship. A priceless love, unconditional and endless, never betraying, forsaking, or divorcing. He's your recipient of every thought conceived, every 
prayer uttered or unuttered. He hears and entertains my meditations, hopes, and dreams, never turning a deaf ear.  No human of any stripe nor type has 
earned the right. But into His sacred heart is poured my most intimate issues from the deepest portions of my tainted heart where no other has dared to 
trod. It's in my heart,  as must also be in yours, precious and personal items preserved for the ears of The Most Holy, ever to remain unspoken and unwritten; to my God, a silent prayer.
