Love's Favorite Child

Hey, remember that poem
You wrote many years ago?
The one I like to look at
The one that moves me so?

You didn't know it at the time
And quite frankly, neither did I
That the "we"of whom you spoke
Would be us and we would  cry

You spoke of how you'd forgive me
When you'd show me I was wrong
It's part of our majestic tapestry
That fills our hearts with song

I know my place and that I belong
Every time you reach out to me
I humbly let you be in charge
Because love's favorite child is "we"

Spirit Move Me

All my life
I want Spirit to move me
Guide my footsteps
Of where I should be

Today Spirit moves me
To shower you with love
I got that clear message
From God up above

Sometimes I get so confused
Don't know what to do or where to go
I ask for Spirit to move me
And to show me what I need to know

At times I think I'm inadequate
Sad that I don't know what to do
But Spirit brings me where my heart is
And that's stuck on loving you

Who am I to question
The bigger picture and plan
I may not understand it all
But I'm compelled to love you, man

I might look foolish to some
To love a man so far away
But I'm happy letting Spirit move me
For me, there's no other way

"Me"

I love the who
That you call "me"
I'm really sure
I'm in love with he

"Me" is who you are
When ego's pushed aside
"Me" is who you are
Truly, deep inside

"Me" is who you are
When you are alone
"Me" is the who you are
To God and me you've shown

When I say I love you
I'm saying I love "me"
Because I think "me" is wonderful
I love that "me" that's he

Irrevocable

I am 
Irrevocably
Irreversibly
In love with you

I must 
Undoubtedly
Indubitably
Do what my heart says to do

I hereby
Infinitely
Eternally
Vow my loyalty to you

I yearn
Constantly
Longingly
To do what lovers do

I pledge
Patience
Long-suffering
Til I can be with you

I promise
Devotion
Faithfulness
This is what I'll forever do

What Does That Mean?

Still, you're telling me soon
But what does that mean
I'm both here and there
In limbo, in between

It's like explaining a math problem to me
I accept your conclusion to be true
But doesn't mean I understand it
Though I still have faith in you

I'm at somewhat of a loss
I'm drowning in my own tears
But I still believe you when you say
Soon I'll have no fears

And it's not that I'm afraid , per se
Just a little lonely and scared I've disappointed
But you implore there's nothing to be feared
When you've assured me we're annointed

Please forgive this lonely little girl
Longing for her permanent residence
Within your arms is where it's at
Above all, it takes precedence

The Love

Sometimes
I look love straight in the eyes
I have to turn away
Because my soul cries

Love
It's brilliance so bright
I feel I'll be blinded
By it's light

Beautiful
From God this gift
My emotions crowd
Through them I must sift

God
Has provided me with this love
Something so perfect
Can only be from above

Overwhelming
This love at times
Manifesting in me
Flowing out in rhymes

Object
Of my affection
Deserves it all to himself
Thank God for our connection

Gratitude
To God forever
We're indebted to Him 
Forever and ever

Devoted
To Him and  to each other
Thank you for this love
We give to one another

Take Me Away

Whisk me into your world
So this one will be a distant memory
One in which I don't look back
Whittle it away with your magic emery

My bags are packed
I'm ready to go
To the place you call home
I'm anxious to know

Take me away
My sweet prince
To where all my sorrows
Will be rinsed

Looking for you to come
And take me away
Your promises grow sweeter
With every passing day
