Ray Poem by Matthew Edan Oliver Palma

I tried so hard to fathom - why you ask me why it's You...
I can not seem to simply get it -
why you can't understand my dependence on You...
why you refuse to accept that my whole world is You...
why you rebuke me when I say I'd die without You...

I have no plausible answers - for all these questions from You...
I can just only tell You that it simply is YOU -
who make me want to be better every time I am with You...
become the best of who I am because I'm blessed by You...
to love my life again because I share it with You...

I must ask for your forgiveness - forgive me for making it You...
I can not make this clearer anymore than I need to -
that I loved myself much better the moment I had You...
how less to myself I've become than to me are You...
as I can't ever bear a life's moment lived in the absence of You..
