Averment

The pleasure of love, is to love.
So love, because you are capable of loving.

Heart Disease

Am I the only one with the gnawing within,
am I the only one grasping the weight of my own sin?

See, when was the last time money or sex forgave you?
When did your lover set you free from all you’re enslaved to?
See, what else has died so you could be made new?

When was the last time the world promised satisfaction,
and then actually came through?

- Jefferson Bethke

Unfamiliar Familiarity

When I met you, my heart sighed.
The sigh radiated from the hole in my chest,
from the place that had never seen light.
"There you are," it said, "you don't know how long I've been waiting for you".

Affinity

An astonishing force, a soul overwhelmed like nothing before.
Sprouting within her heart, it takes root there, it grows,
greater and greater.

Shut behind a rib cage, her warm heart expands.
Independently of her will it expands, it contracts,
over and over.

Adoration

Agape... an ingenuous distinctive of divinity,
immeasurably greater than a mere affection.
Ones ultimate good is steadily longed for,
oh, as far as it can be obtained.

Callow comprehensions invite false proclamations,
begging for opportunities to ruin.
Authorisation to courageously dare,
follows a search for a more tangible appreciation.

Throwing herself into the fight,
a mind seldom to be won over.
In the midst of  a magnificent hurricane,
only yet to be swept off her feet.

Seeking new chords,
new ways to whisper Your name.
Desiring to discover a somewhat semblant significance,
she's patiently waiting to be romanced.

Solitary

This world's an ugly place,

but you're beautiful to me.

When I'm all alone,

I can feel your heart beat.

I can feel your heart beat,
like it's my own.

Cosmos

Because there's nothing more beautiful
than the way the ocean refuses to stop kissing the shore,
no matter how many times it's sent away.

Affliction

Pain reminds my heart,

it reminds my heart that this is not,
this is not our home.
