Finding True Love

She's just going through the motions day after day,                                                     She doesn't even realize she's wasting away.                                                         Words of wisdom & encouragement is spoken into her life,                                  
 Does she get it?Or will she keep spitting in the face of Godly advice?                   Happiness is what she deserves, 
But will she ever truly be happy & whole if life is always about her?
I know the answers,but does she even have a clue?                                                  Why can't she understand what it is she must do?
She's screaming inside & thinks no one sees,                                                            But I feel her pain everytime she cries at my feet.                                                  Precious little one with a beautiful heart,
Your standing right in front of me,but we seem so far apart!                            
 I reach out to you,Yet you push me away;                                                                 My love is authentic,but yours seem so fake.    
I know the real you is hid deep inside,Please quit running theres no where to hide. 
My love is real!Why can't you see?I'm only here for you & will always be.                    You seem to be looking for love in all the wrong places, 
A temporary fix of kind words and friendly faces.                                                                                                                          But if you choose a life of freedom away from emptiness,regret,and fear; 
It will only lead you into my arms and I will wipe away all of your tears.

thank u Dr.Ram Mehta Ilove to write and I love God even more.He ha blessed me so much and helped me through so much and I want to share that love with other people and to let them know they are not alone and no matter how long we run from what ever it is that keeps us from having a fullfilled and meaningful life it never gets better until we surrender everything we are to God.He loves us and we will never expierience a LOVE like Christ can give us.
