✝To That Special Someone✝

Through that pain and confusion
Your presence means a lot to me
Sensing your hesitation to speak
I didn’t know how to respond

Through the walk of stillness
Sorting out my thoughts was all I did
Not wanting to speak hurtful words
Silence was all I could do

Your love your sincerity, appreciated
Knowing me was what you wonder
Going through my mind was a mess
As things came after another

Never did I knew
What’s said hurts you that way
My apology is what I sincerely send
Forgive me for that, will you?

Sorry that it startled you
Probably I’ve suppressed too deep
All started to flow
When it was pricked

With all my heart
Overflowing gratitude covers me
Sincerely thanking God
I don’t have to refrain in front of you

As painful as it has been
As tears has flowed like never before
All I need is time
Understanding is what I seek

When time has come
When readiness calls
Will be when my heart’s open
To share what’s really at stake

Pressing on, standing tall
Is my assurance for you
With all encouragements
Will you give your continual support?

✝ Footprints✝

One night a man had a dream.
He dreamed he was walking
Along the beach with the Lord.

Across the sky flashed scenes from his life.
For each scene,
He noticed two sets of footprints in the sand,
One belonging to him, and the other to the Lord.

When the last scene of his life flashed before him,
He looked back at the footprints in the sand.
He noticed that many times along the path of his life
There was only one set of footprints.
He also noticed that it happened
At the very lowest and saddest times in his life.

This really bothered him
And he questioned the Lord about it.
"Lord, You said that once I decided to follow You,
You'd walk with me all the way.

But I have noticed that
During the most troublesome times in my life,
There is only one set of footprints.
I don't understand why when I needed
You most you would leave me."

The Lord replied, "My precious, precious child,
I love you and I would never leave you.
During your times of trial and suffering,
When you see only one set of footprints,
It was then that I carried you."

✝Afresh✝

Haunting past
I'm reminded again
Knocking on my door
Was that arousing fear

Never once i knew
It hurts that bad
Until what's hidden
Became so clear

Once or twice
It has never happened
More than this
I refused to 'see'

Yet ray of hope
have shone upon me
Assuring me that
It can be put behind

Now all I want
is to move on from here
Giving them my best
from this very moment...
