It Was His Way To Bring Her Close To Him Poem by Ritu Shah

It was His way to bring her close to Him
A handful of joys, a pinch of pain
To remind her that He exists
And its all part of His game

She had forgotten Him long ago
When in the name of destiny He had left her all alone
He had brought her good time as well
But she was too tired of finding reasons behind them
He lost her or she lost Him
The truth was they were separate
She did not know why
But some hollowness her heart felt
She had given up
Seldom she prayed or fought
Anything that hurt her heart
She would cry and let it go

He did that again
Placing her in a difficult situation to face
She tried on her own
But no way so easily He would let her go
Then in a moment it clicked
It was His way to bring her close to Him
Without Him, she was incomplete
She knew that and He forced her to accept it
She had no way to go
Than to go back to Him
Once again she joined her hands
Closed her eyes
And prayed Him
to make her survive the pinch of pain
and hold her hand along the life when it rains


PS: He is God.
