The Dead Life

This is something I wrote a while ago that I just found a few days ago.

I want to ignore you
and let you go,
to pretend you never happened--
but you're clinging to a piece of my heart--
a piece that can't be forgotten.
We stretched apart,
though you're close to my heart,
and heaven knows why--
you weren't ready for me--
not my kind of guy--
you still need to see the Light.
I pray for you,
oh I pray so hard,
hoping every day,
that God will somehow
change your heart--
then once again bring you my way.
But until that day,
if it ever comes 'round,
my heart is broken and bound.
I'll let myself die,
and let you live,
in the power of Christ
that I've found.
