Others before self

In joy, I shared.

In abundance, I gave.

In innocence, I loved.

In health, I nurtured.

With none to enthuse.

In pain, I endured.

In emptiness, I meditated.

In desperation, I searched.

In want, I thirsted.

With none to ease.

All hours of prayer for others with hope,

Are now ramblings of unrequited love –

Passionate love for You, the One.

I still believe You live, do You Love?
