But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect.<br /> 1 Peter 3:15&nbsp;

Ages ago I wrote it
When my heart leaned in different directions.
But today I read it.
The words crept near my heart as a gentle reminder.

though hurricanes of feelings
and caverns of love
pull me far, far away from you
and leave me stranded
on the peak of a too-high hill

Yet I cannot forget you;
Even then my heart is not mine alone.
For once you held me,
And you have never let me go.

I hope you understand that just because you will always remember someone doesnt mean you can't love another...but it's tough.
