If Our Eyes Never Meet
23 October, 2003
Author: Lorraine Gibson
God sends people into our lives for a reason!!
It may be for a month, year are a lifetime
They come to help, teach, and touch us.
God, only knows why he came to me that
gray, cold, February day.
How did he know the stress of my job had
Made me hit rock bottom.
Had he come to chisel the stress, cold,
Bitterness away.
What was in that simple e-mail from a stranger that said?
Hello!! Happy Valentines Day!
That slowly started to melt the stress, bitterness away.
Months have pasted since that cold winter day,
Close friends, we have become.
I never thought I would allow any one
Again to see into this broken heart of mine.
Our hearts, thoughts, minds, have crossed
I am not sure why!
I feel at times, he sees inside of me, he knows how I feel,
what I have been thinking.
He make me laugh, he makes me cry!
If the many, many miles keep us a part and our eyes never meet.
I will live with no regrets, for I will know, it is just, not to be.
But my heart will always know someone
Special, touched me that day.
For it is better to be touched by someone, then
To never be touched at all.
God sent me a blessing that cold winter day
When I had cried out to him, his voice I could not hear!
He sent You to be the messenger to gently wash
the stress, cold, bitterness away.
Yes, I was truly blessed that day for I found
Gods love, warmth, comfort
In you, My Friend!!
So thank God everyday for the blessing
Of your Friends!! I know I do!!!

Martin Vann (171.75.208.78) -- Friday, October 24 2003, 03:02 pm Lorraine, Again, you write a poem of deapth, content, warmth, appreciation and love. The way you care about a friend, someone whose eyes you have never seen, yet, I somehow, think the hearts have met. This is among the greatest of treasures, between friend. Perhaps one day, the two of you will meet, wonder what you would say, I love a good mystery, a love story, without end. A beautiful work, write more! We all love words that make us feel and appreicate life. MartinV |
