I see you,
Yes you.
The one trying to hide
from all your troubles.

You’re not fooling everybody.

You with the pound of cover up
Thinking it highlights your natural beauty,
When all it does is shadow your sadness.
And that fake laugh you give when around “friends,"
I see how it doesn't reach your twinkling eyes.
I see you making stuff up just to “fit in”
To be noticed.

You’re not fooling everybody.

I see how the world affects you.
I see how you try to hide all your hard problems
with the way you act.
.
When you talk behind My back,
It breaks my beating heart.
The one who really sees you.
The one who really understands.

You seem to think that I do the same
When all I really want is to show you My love,
My way.

You show everybody your real self,
The one you think is real at least.
When it’s the thing that holds you back the most.

Yet I made you to give your heart.
Can’t you see that?

I see you giving yourself to the wrong kind of love
Love that is not true,
Love that I didn't create to be something beautiful.

I see when your tears topple over onto your pillow from
all the rejection and judgment that has come your way.
Don’t you see how I will never reject you?

It makes my heart and soul ache to soothe you.
I long to comfort you.

Can’t you see how I just want to see the smile I have given you?

Don’t you understand how I just want you to see my love?
My beautiful, perfect love that is Unending
Understanding
Giving
Hopeful
Boundless
Fulfilling
Faithful.

The­re is so much more to my love,
So much more I want to show you.
But you have to search.

You have to be willing,
You have to break through that cage.
You remember,
The cage you have put around your heart.
The heart I made to see Me.

I will never tire of chasing you.
It saddens Me when you try to hide from Me.
But that doesn't mean I won’t always be there,
Willing for you to find Me.

When you hear the wind, creating perfect pitch,
Think of Me.
When you hear a child's pure laughter,
Think of Me.
When you see a man and a woman staring into each others eyes
with the love I have given them,
Think of Me.
When you see that multicolored beauty in the sky after a rain fall,
Think of Me.
When you see, smell, feel, hear, touch,
the beauty I have made for you,
Think of Me.
When you feel that deep longing for something more,
Don’t look for the first thing that comes your way,
Only. Think. Of. Me.
I will certainly be thinking of you.

I have equipped you with all the right things you need to find me.
I will push you in the right direction.
Once you start looking,
You won’t be able to stop.

I will put people in your life.
No, not the ones who only take.
But the ones who I approve of.
The ones who will encourage and always be there for you,
On this terrifying journey called life.

I leave for now,
with this promise.

I promise to be the best friend anyone can ever ask for.
I will never stop bringing you towards me.

All you have to do is
Find Me.
