Come Back To Me



Come back to me

I cried day and night after she walked away
I cried due to my love for her to come back 
But no way to persuade her
She had made her choice to walk away
I mourn her absence
Since i am inspired in her presence 
I thought i have lost her forever
Since i could not fathom how to get her back

Then i turned to God
To seek counsel
Since he is aware of my pains 
As i cast my burdens upon him
I said, you know i love her
And you know my love for her
Is your love for me

I said, i can't just think of her walking away from me
As you can't just think of me walking away from you
And he asked, what do i want?
And i said, i want her back
But i can't just fathom her coming back
Because she is engaged with another guy

Whenever the thought of her come back cross my mind
I choose to change the idea as i bind and do not mind
Then generate other thoughts to sweep it away like the wind
But i never knew God was in action
Since he only know what could happen
To every single soul on earth

Then God came calling me to call her
After many months of separation
As i reason with God not to call her
Since she is engaged with another guy
Then God kept silent
Since i choose not to reason along with him
Now i know obedience is better than sacrifice

Then came sleepless night as my soul yearn for her
Then came nightmares as my heart wrestle for her
Then came the presence of God as a burden
Calling me to call her and listen to her
Calling me to call her and know whats wrong
Calling me to call her as i always call her

Yet i ignored and was restless for days and months
Until that fateful thursday
When i decide to call her
Instantly her phone number dropped in my heart
Since I have deleted it from my phone book
Because of the hurt feeling of her walking away
Because of the pain i passed through

As I dialed, she responded
I queried about her position
When she reveal her position
It was a different story
Deep in my heart I was sorry 
For the pains she passed through
The pains of betrayal
Part of me was happy
Since i know she will come back to me
Part of me was grieved
Because of the stigma she had to face

I never knew she was in such disposition
Until I came calling to know her position
Now I know, that was why God came calling
To visit her, to console her, to reassure her
That she is coming back to me
And come back into my love
And come back into my heart
So that we will live together
And spend the rest of our lives F.O.R.E.V.E.R
Just come back to me
