“Every relationship needs compromise,
How selfish I am,
I call you when I fail,
I forget you when I succeed,
Perhaps that’s why,
I keep failing,
So that I remember you,
Oh! You created us to be loved back,
You are more near to us than our jugular vein,
Yet I remember you,
When I see others,
As your perfect creation,
Find you in their heart,
I fail to find you in my heart,
I grieve when I run to others,
To worship in the name of love,
I shall cultivate my relationship with you,
Nourish it by remembering you,
Keeping the focus towards you
By planting seeds of love.”
