Blessed By YOU

I stood there eye to eye with my maker,
Taking my own life just to meet him faster.
A defiant look on my face, stained with past tears,
Asking those questions i harboured all those years.

Why did you make my life so lonely?
I never did my child, you just wouldn't see who was standing there quietly.
Why didn't you give me someone to talk to?
I always did my child, you just wouldn't see they were waiting for you.

Why did you forsake me in my time of need?
I never did my child, you just wouldn't see who helped you onto your feet.
Why didn't you send an angel or a friend?
I always did my child, you just wouldn't see who held your hand.

How can you say that?!There was no one to share
My joy.My sorrow.My dreams.My fears.My life was stripped bare
Of all the love you showered on the rest of your creations.I never
Knew how it felt to be loved by someone.Not now.Not ever.

My sweet sweet child, I was with you at every step of the way.
At every point of your life.I guided you with the help of angels everyday.
But you never realised how important they were.Who was there when you
Needed a shoulder to cry on?Who cheered you up when you were feeling blue?

I wanted to argue but then, their faces appeared before me in a second.
I saw what they saw, I felt what they felt, I heard what they heard.Then
I realised.I had been blessed all along.They had always been there for me.
It was I who had never been there for them.I wanted to thank them sincerely.

God smiled and said, "Go back and tell them yourself."
They have been wishing so patiently and true.
Then I opened my eyes and found myself
With YOU.


-If you get there before I do, don't give up on me.-
