Him and me

I gave so much and so much love to them. Yet, one day, they forgot me. And forgot the good things I told them .... it was only for their own good. I just wanted them to be happy. And yes, I wanted a little bit of their love in return. Was it too much to expect in return for all that I was doing?

I thought I was alone undergoing these emotions. I thought no one else other than me was going through this.

Then, one day I saw Him looking at the sky with a far-away look on His face. He seemed as if He was missing someone or someone's love. I realized He gives more love than I did. He does more than I did. Far more. He loves unconditionally .... but yet He is very alone. He does not want anything in return for His love, but He delights in any love that He may receive. But His children mostly forget Him.

And I was filled with compassion at Him. I think I now know what He feels like ..

O my dearest one, my love may not mean much to You. I may be very insignificant and tiny and may be of little use to You. But all that I have is Yours. This heart of mine is Yours. This impure drop of love is Yours. And you can count on it every moment. As long as there is breath in this body, it will only love You and serve You. Please accept this small offering. All I seek is Your happiness and love. And I will do the best i can .. for You.

Come my love, let us walk away together. My shoulders are young and firm, and they will support You until there is strength in them. This voice will entertain You until it dies. These eyes will adore You until they go blind. These limbs will walk with You until they falter.

You are mine and I am Yours ..
