I Was the One You Loved Long Ago

I was the one you knew long ago.
You told me then,... You loved me so.

I was the one you once
 loved to talk about.
You said that you loved me
 beyond any doubt.

I was the one you chose
 to always follow.
A hunger for me...  
You can no longer "swallow."

I was the one you cried to,
 in a difficult time.
Now you have removed me
 far from your mind.

I was the one you once held
 dear to your heart.
Please return to me now.  
I will not depart.

I am the one you try to remove
 from your mind.
But my love for you will stand
 the test of time.

I am the one...  Jehovah.  El-Shaddai.
All of your needs.  I shall supply.

I am the one who is waiting for you.
I am here right now...  
The rest is up to YOU!
