He loves her,
he loves me not.
He loves her -
the pretty one.
I was always meant to be
the spinster aunt,
the old maid sister,
destined to remain
in her beautiful shadow.
He loves her,
he loves me not.
Who would notice me
when she is there?
And now she is
always here
always between
me and him
making him
love her, not me,
not plain old me.
He loves her,
he loves me not.
He loves me not -
the plain one.
Here I am,
forever overshadowed,
in a loveless marriage,
fighting for him,
for the least bit of attention,
and still always remaining
in her beautiful shadow.
And yet
you see my plight, o Lord.
You see me, the plain one,
and take pity.
The one less loved
becomes a mother of children -
children, the symbol of love.
He loves me not -
still it hurts,
but your love comforts me.
He loves her,
he loves me not -
but
you love me.
he loves me not.

I Love You Too
"Jesus, stop! You don't know what You're doing!"
Jesus turned to face me, His beautiful face covered in blood and sweat and tears and dirt, His eyes merciful under the heavy and brutal cross on His right shoulder.
"Stop..." I gasped, trying to catch my breath. "You don't...know what You're...doing..."
He continued to look at me and I at Him. His eyes said, "Trust Me; I know what I'm doing. I've known since the beginning of the world."
I shook my head so hard, I gave myself a headache. "No, You don't! Come on, let's just go back..."
I tried to get Him to turn towards the town instead of the hill known as The Place of the Skull, but He sim

I'm Sorry
For All the days
I've neglected,
I've ignored,
I've turned my back
on You
For All those moments
I never seized
for You
For All the seconds
I denied You,
I forgot You,
I didn't care about You
I am Sorry
Please LORD forgive Me

Being a Christian Boring?
Who ever thought being a Christian is boring never really was one. You are being constantly challenged to grow. To grow you have to trust. Trust God. Trust our Lord Jesus. Allow the Holy Spirit to work in your life. You need to submit. Submit to God. That's what most people don't want to do. Original sin; like Satan, wants to be God. To have your will done instead of God's Will. That the whole thing. "Thy will be done, Thy kingdom come. On earth as it is in heaven."
People think that married Christians are boring? You know your relationship is for eternity. Not that you still will be husband and wife:
Matthew 22:30

I've been planning to write this for YEARS. I already knew the line "he loves her, he loves me not" would feature, but never knew how to get further until now.
I thought of Leah, the plainer sister, always in her sister's shadow, less loved by Jacob. Read the story in Genesis 29: [link]
Thankfully we don't have to share husbands nowadays, but still I think the feeling of being overlooked because of someone prettier, or not being loved by the one we want love from, or being left for another, is something pretty universal (sadly). What Leah's story shows is that even if you don't get the love and attention from a man, God loves you - and His love is, in the end, what counts more. Though I don't think the hurt completely goes away; it's natural after all to long for love. But I think there is something really comforting in realising that God loves you more than a man ever can, and I think it's important to realise that a man can never fulfill and satisfy you; only God can. It's something I've been learning.

Don't ask me why I'm cranking out so many poems tonight; I'll blame the entire pot of green tea I just emptied... Or maybe it's because I have a deadline to send all my poems to my mother for printing, hehe~
