I sit a look out the window and even watch the door,
I normally do not care what it is you do,
For reasons unknown, today I seem to be upset with you,
Advantages of me have been given and also taken,
My eyes have suddenly been awaken,
From their somber sleep, and straight as an arrow stare,
I'm seeing my true emotions, needs, wants, cares,
For you are my soul mate, my love my, never want us to be apart,
But for some reason today you brought a stinging to my heart.
I cannot control the way I feel,
All I can do is pray as I kneel,
Down to ask god for forgiveness for my selfish thoughts
When deep down, it is your inability to see the true me that rots..

You have endured some injustice it seems, but your solution is on the mark, kneeing down to pray. At the core, we are all rotten indeed, but it is only by God's Spirit and Jesus' sacrafice that we are made whole again. Such emotion Shell. What a god-given gift you posses that I do not. Outstanding. Thank you & I thank God FOR you.
