XIV

Your invitation

The pulse in my wrist

This tender fire

Relentless

Limitless

Rips out my heart

And wakes me from

My enchanted sleep.

XIII

Shatter this mirror

as shadows turn

and consciousness stirs

every comfortless reflection

satisfied by the architect of grace

XII

Your breathing

Flooding

Every vein in me

Rinsed in your presence

Alive to the wonder

of love’s intoxication.

XI

Life dances

As time passes

With a tranquil glance

Searches your sensitive beauty

And with scarlet lips

You kiss

Each secret scar

Between us.

X

Whispered love

Announcing your arrival

Evaporating my heart

Quenching my thirst

Anointing my soul

Passionate sigh of grace.

IX

Breathe upon me

Breathe life into me

Breathe peace inside me

Breathe quietness through the strife

Breathe passion over me

Breathe desire through me

Breathe love within me

Breathe rest in the tempest of life.

VIII

He is the sun of heaven’s day

He is the supply of exceeding abundance

He is the glory of the glorified

He is the riches of joy beyond measure

He is the garments of glory and beauty

He is the reality of creations substance

He is the promise of infinite goodness

He is the map of discovered treasure.

 

He is eternity, without beginning, without end

He is light, a new heaven and new earth

He is the city, dwelling in his bride

He is yours, He is mine.

VIII

Streams of lovingkindness

Healing my soul

Ripples of infinite love

Delighting my heart

Songs of tenderness

Releasing my mind

Anthems of beauty

Captivating my desire.

VII

The heart so frail

Alone, serene,

Splintered beauty

Stop, perceive

The grace that lasts

In realms of love.

VI

I once looked

Towards the river

A worn, tired face

A sad, forlorn face

A lost, sodden face

Reaching for hope

Bleeding with grace

Slowly immerse me

Wash over me,

Your fountain of love

Your river of delight.
