Where he waits for me |

The first thing I would confess is that no the sadness in my eyes is not that I have given up hope it is that a piece of me is missing. For the longest time after his passing I envisioned myself left behind and hopeless. But I realize now that the piece missing from my heart has been transitioned to heaven and my hope is not dead, it has only shifted with it. There is no sadness I can give up there is no joy to hang on to I simply wait until the time when my heart will be whole again. And yes I know that you might look deeper and say there is yet another sadness there. Though I do not know how you could see past the greater to the long since resolved smaller. And so gain I confess that no I do not have nor have I ever had a partner in this life who sees me lovely and writes me as the subject of his love song. And I cannot say that from time to time this does not pain me but I have resolved that since my Heavenly Father knows what is best, then an earthly love must not be what I need. For if on this earth I had someone to think me wonderful, wouldn't I tend to disregard my great need for an eternal Savior? If in his eyes my reflection were perfection of what would I have the need to be set free? So instead I was given Someone who loved me enough to die for me, whose death made a way for me to make it in the end to where He waits for me... |

There is such a sweet tender tune in this beautifully written poem, but the melancholy prevails. You sound so deeply lovable, dear luminosity. When we love another with all our heart, it always becomes a divine love and your love for Him will not be diminished believe me. From the bottom of my heart I wish you to experience an earthly divine love ... Love, Margherita |

Beautifully written. When you least expect it, the eartly love may come along. But if not, life is still a gift of love to share. |
