Love

Why do you cry?
What are these tears
I've wiped them away
long ago

your heart is heavy
when it should be light
I shoulder the burden
I hold you at night

feel the warmth of my love
surrounding you
in the darkest hour
I am with you

feel not forsaken
you are loved
completely
body
heart
mind
spirit

come to me then
rest your wounded soul
I will make you whole
rest in my tenderness
shoulder my love

allow your heart to speak
when the words are caught in your throat
hear my voice whisper in the breeze
gently
I reach
holding you close

My merciful love
cascades
surrounds
envolopes
you

rest
your heart
in mine

be not troubled
all is well
I see
more deeply
than you can possibly know

trust in me
my love for you runs deep
deeper than the sea
higher than the mountain
further than the stars

have joy
in peace
shall you go
spread my love
be love
you are
loved

    30 pieces of silver
    the price of a dead slave

    bought for a price
    you shed your blood
    in place of mine

    30 pieces of silver
    you gave your life
    the ultimate sacrifice
    my blood not enough for paradise

    30 pieces of silver
    not not enough
    the priceless gift of life eternal

    not worthy of your love
    not worthy of your love

    wash my feet never
    lowest work of slaves

    make me worthy
    the stripes that heal
    make me whole
    set me free

    30 pieces of silver
    ill begotten
    bought a field of blood

    30 pieces of silver
    not worthy of your love
    make me worthy
    take the cup
    drink it up

    water and blood
    30 pieces
    not enough
    water and blood
    drink it up
    drink it up
    consume the cup
    the bitter sweet
    30 pieces
    make me worthy

      You say you love me
      want me for yourself
      forever to have
      forever to hold

      see the peace
      feel the love
      experience joy

      counsel and wisdom
      you hear me speak

      reject the very thing
      that has made me what I am
      sets you free

      cling to the strength you see in me
      refusing what has made me free

      blinded by passion
      false hopes and dreams
      you love me and hate
      what is the essence of me

      Keyes imprinted on my heart
      and mind
      I offer them to you
      break the chains that bind

      you place them in my hands
      clasp them tight and go away

      run to the darkness
      it cannot hide your sin
      go astray
      destroy you in time
      reject the keys that bring freedom

      another place
      a different time
      your heart will yearn for me

      searching
      ever searching
      another set of keys

      reach for the key of knowledge
      water and wine and bread
      Peter awaits
      holding the keys
      set you free

        Time fleeting
        ever changing
        moving
        will tomorrow come

        procrastination wicked
        it tries to take your life

        no time for tomorrow
        today not assured
        tonite may find you gone
        where will you be

        only this minute
        this second
        is certain

        change
        while there is time
        change
        there may not be time
        change
        tomorrow may not come

        procrastination wicked
        consuming to the core
        tomorrow may not be

        yesturday is gone
        the thief has come
        stand at the door
        he tries to take your life

        precious is this moment
        will you have it now

        the thief is here
        stealing
        precious moments
        robbing
        you of joy

        come away from the thief
        he tries to take your life
        rob
        steal
        kill
        destroy

        there is a better way
        a new day
        dawning

        the sun will come tomorrow
        will you see it today

        flowers bloom in springtime
        will you smell the perfume
        see the colors
        feel the dew
        precious and new
        precious and few
        the moments we share
        no time to spare

        the fork in the road
        which to take
        life
        death
        choose
        tomorrow may not come
        moments fleeting
        changing
        living
        dying
        multiplying
        gone

          wow, now that I've gotten to read a bunch of your stuff all at once...a series of poems...I feel like i've had a chance to tune into your rhythm a bit more. Now I feel like I 'get it' a bit. Thanks for sharing these a bit. I identify with your angst. Keep writing, and keep sharing.

          lotsa love, (when we seem to need it the most)
