i lost my way
and i hurt myself
i needed you in my life
and didnt even know it
i ran from you
thinking i was right

'but even if i run a thousand miles
away from you, i know that your
always just one step away'

when i needed you in my life
you were always there
waiting for me to come back
to stand by you
and love you
like you love me

that quote is from "As I Lift My Hands" by Philmore.  its a christian band...and they summarized that from Psalm 139:7-10.



“A single choice can build destinies,or destroy them.”

I want to look into your eyes and see you smile at me
I want to hear you say "Well done"

Philmore rocks! Ok , i've never heard of them. I just wanted to be a part of the group... is that a crime?!?!
Anyway, well done on the poem. I thought you did quite well on it...

This piece is beautifully done... and so true! Wonderful description of the Lords' endless love. Thanks for sharing.

I agree with Peter, I love how you surrounded the quote with your own poem.  In a way it made it seem as though the poem revolved around the quote (which perhaps it did), but I didn't mind.
I like what you've done here, Tiffer.  I thought it was creative.
