Hellos and goodbyes.

why does tonight, have to end?
why don't we hit restart,
and pause it at our favorite parts.
we'll skip the goodbyes.
if i had it my way,
i'd turn the car around and runaway,
just you and i.

Why do we all have such varying perceptions of a similar situation? How is it that one can so callously dismiss an entire event, while the other has to grapple with the lingering feelings? And why do we always end up trusting the wrong people, and wasting our hearts in the wrong places?

You're still the same
You never change
You are the everlasting God.
I'll turn my eyes upon Jesus.
And the things of the earth will grow strangely dim, in the light of His glory and grace.

Help me, oh God.
