Wrote this about a year ago, just after I watched Passion of the Christ....


People

All my life I've loved people,
cherished my memories
fought to save their honour
laughed away their fears
& troubles,
drying their cheeks,
but what do I get for it?

PAIN

TEARS

SUFFERING!

All that's left of all my memories,
all the tears I once dryed
from their cheeks,
all the fears & troubles
I once laughed away...

Now I have trouble sleeping,
I have difficulty laughing
their fears away
& most of all I can't dry their tears no more,
I've lost the gift to care
I've lost my ears for listening,
'cause my life has changed!

I still cry,
still care
still laugh
but it's not the same!

I can't believe how cruel people are,
I can't understand why
& I can't understand how!

People have been there
since the beginning
but I never realised that
they could be so heartless!

I know He died for us,
but still I can't understand
why & how someone
could torture another
without crying or
feeling anything?

I would die a million times
just to save my Lord,
but I know that He would
die for me,
instead of me dying for Him!

I've changed,
but now that I'm not raw anymore
I still love people,
but I can't forget,
but I can forgive!

Thank you Father!
Your love and mercy
is wonderful!

Don't be disheartened, things pass, time passes, pain eases, Time is a big healer!
Even your gift will come back. As you say your self, His mercies are great!
With a heart like yours, you can't be disillusioned for long...
