Prayer For a Friend (Poem)

[Kiva]

You knew my heart, you knew my soul.
You knew what it was I stood for.
Was it so much, to ask you to understand?
Are we that different?
Are our worlds so far apart?

Questions raised, answers given.
Accepted, it brings a smile to my face.
Rejected, my heart breaks.
Knowing the answer you could not accept.
Will you hate me now?

What can I do? How can I show you?
The tears of frustration that fall.
Heartbroken, I weep.
I have failed you. God, forgive me.
I tried in my own strength, and failed.

I love you with the love
That God loves me.
Your soul is precious to me,
And I pray God's hand of protection
Rests on your life;

Until one day, you may see my world,
As I have seen yours.
Until that day, my thoughts, my prayers,
Dwell upon you,
A dear, and true friend.

Kiva, that's beautiful! That's the kind of writing that touches my heart in a special way. It makes me want to cry--not because it's sad, but so beautiful! Keep writing, Kiva.

That was very nice Kiva.

It moved me.
Kinda sounds like a Christian song I
heard on the radio once. I like
listening to Christian music because of
the positive messages that they say in them.
And your Poem is like that.
