That Separate Road

My heart cried out in panic,

When you leave without adieu.

I waited in silence,

With misty eyes fixed on you.

 

I asked my heart why it raced,

And it groped for a sane response.

But the answer that came after

Were memories inside my mind

 

I asked my heart why it despaired,

But my query was ignored.

So in my thoughts came a request

To offer everything to the Lord

 

Hopeful, I waited patiently.

Singing songs for my frantic heart

With faith, I looked toward heaven

As I wish for a brand-new start.
