The Rest

In this world

Your life is nobody’s concern

Nobody cares about your life

If it is none of anybody’s business

Why do you expect anybody cares of

Your life

 

For a ‘yes’ I waited 4 days

It wasted one week of my life

It might change my entire life

But who cares!

Nobody!!!

 

When your own life is on the right track

Would you like to get involved

With others’ trouble

To share others’ bitterness

No no no, of course

 

In times of helpless

Who can I turn to

The answer is simple

And definite

The Lord

 

 

The Rest*

 

 

When all things were complete

I rested

Not because I was weary

But so that you could rest too

And take time

 

Just

To

Be

Yourself

 

You are precious beyond words

Priceless

Just as you are

 

I love you

Every particle

Every fragment

Every detail

Every smile

Every tear

 

When you feel unloved

When you don't love me

Still

I love you

 

I came for you

I am here for you

Always

 

Come to me

And find

Rest
