The Master's Plan

 I got the news that you were gone.

As I stood alone, all broken and torn.

I felt my world came crashing down.

And I did not know, it would have me bound.

You left without a goodbye to me.

Your last smile I did not see.

My heart was shattered with so much pain.

And I ached to see you alive again.

I wandered to and fro from fear.

Because I could not hold you dear.

I wept with grief and so much need.

For thorns were pricking me like weed.

I remember days of long ago.

When you would hold my hand and go.

To dusty roads upon the hills.

Just so I could get a thrill.

The words you spoke to bless my soul.

I know that it will never grow old.

For surrounding me forevermore.

Will be your heartbeat at my door.

On days when I am weary and weak.

I dip in my memory and your love I seek.

And though you travel to another land.

We'll meet someday because it is the Master's plan.
