Just a While Ago...




I wandered far away,
Walked away from YOU...left your caring hand!

Even as I did,
YOU looked at me and said – Take care. I’ll still be around…

Now I’ve come so far,
And wonder why I wander…

Now you are near me,
But I can’t see YOU…

The walls I built,
To keep YOU away, I fail to tear them now...

Now I’m lost and tired,
Weary eyes and a thirsty soul is all I have now...

Neither joy nor pleasure,
Gives me what YOU give...

My feet seem frozen,
And tears of blood I cry…

Oh! How I remember being in YOUR presence,
Pride, greed, and self-righteousness got me where I'm…

If I return now,
I’ll destroy a thousand lives…starting with who love me!

Can there be a way out?
Can there be some way where I can be with you and not let the knife bleed?
