Where Has He Gone

Where has he gone, the one who carried my laughter, gave me countless stories of his pasture, unsuitable for a grazing sheep like me.

Where has he gone, the one who confused hearts with the mastery of his muse, taken by his words of smooth.

Where has he gone, the deceitful nature of his innocent behavior intentional, unintentional still favored.

Where has he gone, my compass could not detect the direction of his wind, if I keep searching will I find him again or is this a journey towards no end.

Where has he gone, hidden under a rock to hide once again, his heart that has been shattered by countless friends, will the shattered stones be cast by one, will the tears from fright be dried by the Son or will his heart still need me.

Here I am but where has he gone.
