Not Him

I sing the hymns, they sound so sweet
They touch the deepest parts of me
So tell me why I think about you
And not Him

I hear a voice that sounds so near
'I love you' is what it says
So tell me why I hear you
And not Him

I picture walking through those pearly gates
Following the golden roads
So tell me why I'm walking with you
And not Him

At times I feel so lonely
I call out for help and strength
So tell me while I call to you
And not Him

He is supposed to be put first in my life
But somehow he seems to fall second
So tell my why my number one is you
And not Him

I try to love Him
But I feel as if I'd be abandoning you
So tell me why I'm telling you
And not Him

I've tried to explain
Why you seem to mean so much more
I figure I've just grown
Too dependent of your love
So somehow I will have to make it up to Him
For I will not be ashamed of showing my love to you
And not Him

Do Feel

Inside I feel as if we are falling apart And I am the one to blame I don't know if you have sensed it But this is the way I feel I try to stop it You know I love you But I feel as if you are slipping through my fingers And away from my heart I feel helpless and useless There is nothing I can do or say To stop these feelings from coming But I guess that I should feel lucky That my heart still feels at all

Why

I keep asking myself Why does he love me?  Me of all people? But then I ask, why do I love him? And why can't I see myself without him? Why has my life changed to revolve solely around him? All of these questions and I have no answers No reasons as to why I guess we'll just never know This raises another question How do we stay together? I guess because we know what we have is real I am sure you are asking How can we be sure of that? I say because of our experience and intuition Tells us it can be All of these unanswered questions Stir conflict from time to time But we have learned that after The things we didn't mean to say have settled And we have long forgotten The things we didn't mean to do The only thing that remains Is our love for one another And I believe that is enough To thrive on for the rest of our lives

Remember

I remember when long ago All I could do was dream Of finding true love I remember when long ago My wrists sorrowfully showed my pain As did yours I remember when long ago Life held no meaning I felt as if I was being forced to play a game I remember when long ago I felt as if my closest friends Were abandoning me I remember when long ago Alcohol became a dear friend As I tried to drink away my sorrows I remember when long ago You stepped into my life And managed to change all of that Later I will remember How good it felt For your love to fill my heart
