My Letter To God

Heavenly father, You know me like no one else for You created me
And based on that fact, You know that i weep myself to sleep
It was You that hung that picture of her on the walls of my heart
I recall the day You brought her into my life, You gave me the greatest gift of them all
You gave me love, and her smile falls not short from the most beautiful scene in my life
I roam the streets I thought i would have never seen, she would ask me to come see her

Yet today she is asking me out of her life for ever and I just cant no matter how I try
Her face lives in everything that is beautiful, every scene paints a memory in my heart
You even play the music that I played when I captured her heart when I turn on my radio
I run away in my own mind not to think of her, and even in my sleep You remind me of her

I dream of the most beautiful moments that we shared, the memories that will never die
Lord spare me the pain I beg of You, how can I live wondering where she is and with whom
you said You would not give me more than I could handle, please this is too much
My God You and only You know how my heart cries even in the midst of the greatest joy

It's to hard to pretend not to care, when every sunset i cry to her heart
A silent scene, and i shall be no more, but I thank You lord for allowing me to know such love
Let it be your will and only that
But if this cup can be passed from me then i plea to You my King

And if you bring her back, then I promise to love You more than anything in this whole world
Please dry my lament, and free my verse that lives on in the heart of those near me
Pause the sun yet again so that I may have more time to plan
God of mine, your love is all, and I know You know how i feel, You know I love her

Your heart is felt deeply through this prayer/poem. It is very hard to loose someone you love. However you do put conditions on your love for God. Perhaps there shouldn't be any conditions there. His love never stops, even if it is hard to understand when we have lost someone we love. It is through pain that we grow and come to appreciate more the blessings in our life. Love will also cross your path again. But try not to put conditions, because that could be very well what you get. :)

Keep the faith, Edward. If it's meant to be, she will return to your life, but God may have something/someone even better in your future. That's my prayer for you. Love, Carolyn

A heart wrenching prayer you have penned Edward. If this is reality then your line--' you said You would not give me more than I could handle,'-- is the one to hang on to. Whatever the outcome, you WILL survive....blessings Margaret
