I Will Never Give Up On You

To my lost love. A poem.

Numbness. Pain.
"I can't do it." Tears.
"I'm here." Soft touch.
"I can't do it anymore. It's over."
Silence.
And I let you go.
I believed that it was what you needed.
I keep my distance.
I speak so very little.
And still I am here.
Yes I stand. Yes my life goes on.
But so much I would give to hear your voice again.
To know that you have grown.
To know that you are stronger.
No longer afraid.
Able to face the pain you gave me.
Just as I.
This is my hope.
Would I like to be with you?
More than anything on this earth.
But must I have it?
Sigh. No, I don't.
All I pray is that you benefit.
All I pray is for you to be blessed.
Blessed in all things.
And grow closer to the Lord.
In that light, what I want doesn't matter.
But as for waiting, I will hold on.
Maybe I will never know,
Never be told.
The unfinished story.
Your soul M.I.A.
But I will never lose hope.
Hope that you will become greater.
And welcome God's plans for you.
So if you never return to me?
I will survive thought it's not what I want.
But it's not about what I want.
It's about you becoming a man of God.
And in that,
I will never give up on you.
