My Poetry

My Relationship

My eyes wide open, but I can't see your face.

I can't feel skin, but I'm in your embrace.

The lips of grace have brushed my life,

Your love for me has carried me through strife.

The great ears of God hear my cries of distress,

But my life has been clothed in mercy's white dress.

By my side in life's battle you stand,

Simply, encouragingly, holding my hand.

Most search for men who will steal their heart.

Maybe good looks are where they like to start.

But I search for one much different then those,

One man who knows all of my sorrows and woes,

One who does not steal my heart,

But provides me with a brand new start.

And I have that one, he is the Lord,

But please don't go away bored!

This is the one man for me,

There's nothing that I can see.

All my faith lies in him,

And for that I could sing!

There's nothing to do but what I must,

And that is to impart in him all of my trust.

He'll never deceive me and never turn away.

It doesn't matter how far from him I stray,

I'll never be loosed from his loving grip,

Yes this is my ideal relationship.
