Twenty three

The lord was your shepherd ...
 religion lead you from love

You ran from the warmth of green pastures .
Convinced your affection rivaling rapids were mere still waters.

You ran off , left me alone to restore my soul .
Alone I contemplated what paths lead to righteousness

I walked through the shadow of the valley of death with you ,
protected you from the evils you feared , gave  laughter and comfort .


But you still left.


Set a table for my enemy and anointed him as yours ,
and I'm still stuck here with a heart that runneth over with love for you.

I have but one question ... what do I do with the memories and thoughts of you
that'll haunt me for the rest of my existence ?
