Love Story

It is said to be a story
One set up so right
By the author of all stories
The one with extreme might

The characters are broken
They like and cheat and kill
Greed can be seen in their actions
The hole in their soul they are trying to fill

There is a little girl at the street corner
She is hungry and cold and sad
Nice things never happen to her
For some reason, at the world she is really mad

"Would you like to buy some flowers Sir
Maybe for you i can cook and clean
I owe so many people money
When not repaid, they are really ugly and mean"

He was exhausted after the party last night
The hangover was no fun
On the outside, the life of the party
On the inside, contemplating suicide with a gun

He never knew what true love was
Though things and chicks lots he had
The sadness overwhelmed his heart
Was always making him feel really bad

So why is the author writing such tales
He can make them all good
Super powers He has all
Anything He wants to do, He could

But see, the story isnt a classic if
The characters dont have to strive
If every child gets his dream Chrismas toy
And every man his dream wife

The girl will be ok one day
Her heart will eventually heal
Her soul wont be scared no more
Complete and whole she will feel

Maybe the guy will find himself
The true meaning of satisfaction
He will stop living every day for temporary glee
And find himself a true passion

Or maybe they both will give up
And happiness from their lives depart
They will continue to live like the living dead
Constantly numbing their heart

Whatever it may be, one will find
Some unique steps in each story
Decision points, and then some divine tugs
Opportunities to give either God, or someone else glory

The key to it all one may realize
Is to accept then hurt
and ponder seriously what will happen
Once we are buried under the dirt

The author wrote a love story
Between a creator God and man
God persuing a relationship with his kids
And everytime, we got scared and ran

Materialism, lust and greed got our attention
They seemed so cool and fun
Little did we realize about the finite life
Of everything under the sun

God got it though
And attoned for our sins with the cross
Now we have a meaning for this life
It isnt a total loss

So here is to the the ultimate love story
One with lots of pain, brokeness and tears
After going through the grinding wheel and climax
I'll be filled with love and not fears
