SET APART

Hey Mr Mystery Man,

How could I know all about you

And again know nothing.

How could I not want to speak to you

And again want to hear your voice.


Hey - you over there,

How could you be such a mystery

When I share the same pillow with you.

How could you be such a wonder

When I give you a daily massage.

How could you be -

And again I cannot get enough of you.

HOW TO LOVE

Dear God,

How hurt I feel -

How betrayed -

How could love be so conditional?

How could love hurt so badly?

Dear God,

Remove this spite from my thoughts

Remove this anger from my heart

Remove all negativity that drives -

Me from you.

Dear God,

How could I love like you

How could I turn a blind eye

How could love be unconditional

How could love be honest?

Dear God,

Remove the hurt - replace it with healing

Remove the pain - replace it with peace

Remove the borders - replace it with your word.

Dear God,

Do not depart me -

Just teach me how to love,

Amen.
