Tender Heart

I long to see you       become forever well
filled with life and happiness  that from which we fell
I love you for the character               things in you I see
the unpolished gems you contain    your inner quality
 
I see your desire          and searching to be loved
your tenderness to the prison   there what you dream of
I've considered the places       where your mind does dwell
the heights you have aspired       but far from them fell
 
I see into your inner core    not just upon your face
the mind residing in you    that your soul encase
I love that you know      you can count me a friend
and your confidences           I'll keep until our end
 
I know those places      where the hurting went
with childhood abuses         were treated with contempt
I know how criticism         did with anguish fill
and how the remains        are in there living still
 
I have seen you alone     crying in the night
with no one there       to say it will be alright
you put on a brave front     as we all display
but despair rides your soul     each and every day
 
And there did I see  beauty    that lives you within
the part you have protected                 from violence of men
from the words and deeds      from their actions cruel
dispensed by those ignorant           the unthinking fool
 
But I am only human          can only see a little part
the results of mankind's thoughtlessness                 effects upon your heart
so little comfort can I impart             that effectively touches you
until the Son of God                  his love on earth will do
 
Just know you will always   be within my thought
though not there present               you're in my mind allot
I'll look forward till next I see you       and look upon your face
wrap my arms around you     hold you in my embrace
 
Know that your sorrow         Gods intends desist
through the only Kingdom         these governments resist
those who hurt others       will become restrained
until the hearts of men                                can become retrained
 
These are the promises   that through Christ will come
that which resides in heaven        his will on earth be done
and not another soul   will ever hurt your heart
for Gods promise is             that Love          will never you depart
