He Is Still Where I Left Him
He spoke, I heard but I didn't listen;
He then kept quiet, I listened but I didn't hear.
His silence broke my heart, or rather, broke into my heart
I guess I was getting used to his annoying still small voice, always attempting to tell me what to do and what not to do.
I always took his clichés for granted;
He would always say statements like, " please listen, what you are doing is wrong, its not too late to turn back from sin!".
I always hated him for turning my sweet moments into awkward moments.
He always made me regret doing the things l loved the most,
I am not surprised why I regret ever ignoring him.
My virginity was lost while l was trying to ignore him,
My heart was broken while trying to ignore him,
My soul was lost while trying to ignore him and now I am left with nothing but addictions and his silence.
Thank God because his silence has made me realize how deep I am in sin, I know its my iniquity that has separated me from him.
When I thought I was pushing him away from me, rather, I was pushing myself away from him, and that gives me hope coz I know I will always find him right where I left him: at the throne of mercy.
I remember him saying that if I confess my sins, he is faithful and just to forgive me,
So I guess now that I have another chance, when he speaks, not only will I listen, I will also do as he says
