Never Again

God asked me is that really what you want? A man that truly doesn't care about your heart? Who will take advantage of your kindness and only think about himself? While you would put his heart above everyone else, At that moment I thought of the past and now, And how God weeded each of them out, And placed me alone again so I could see, I no longer felt trapped, and He gave me peace, A freedom in my heart I can't quite describe, Even through the pain and the tears in my eyes, Like I could finally breathe again with purpose to thrive, Like I've never felt more alive, I thought of the apostle Paul with his words that I could now understand, And I remembered that feeling of being alone again, Not alone in the sense that you think, Got engulfed my heart around everything, All of a sudden I could focus without interruption in the way, And I realized not one man I chose really loved God this way, They didn't respect the faith and the love I held for God, And at that moment I thanked God they were gone, Because the distractions were taking me farther away, Away from my first love, diminishing my faith,
