Beyond Close

Dear Lover,
You love is beyond me.
You rest at my shoulder, and I don't even feel Your breath,
or know You are obsessed with me.
My guilt swallows me, while You redeem me.
My anger is lessened by Your grace and mercy.
Your love is a mystery.
It arcs like a flash of lightening - threatening and yet familiar.
Dear Lover,
Your love is beyond me.

closer than a brother
sweeter than a sister
More like a deity.

Her

 Church is loud and hidden. Full of praise, unprecedented resilience. She bites an apple, then walks into an eternal city. She rests on Sabbath, then battles ignorance. Strong and faulted, given grace and Jerusalem walls. She hides her beauty while Jesus peers significant.

Unstable

 The clouds are unstable So too are the waves But my faith is stable, solid. Rally and debate is unstable. Fire and Water too. But, God hold us safe.

Reach

 I both reach and retreat. I want you and want nothing to do with you. It is predictable that I both hate and love you. I want you near and must retreat. Like a civil war and trip to Disney Land. You are my contradiction Both push and pull. America, I pledge allegiance and protest you for being immoral.
