"Love Poem"
If I told you I love you I would be too shy to tell you
That you get me though dark nights when I cannot see
And when I feel I cannot go one I imagine you fighting there
and I pray and hold on and it keeps me from dying
It's funny that one can do anything one sets one's mind to do
That if you dream it you can build it
That anything is possible when you have faith
I wanted to fly away on the wind like a maple seed with wings
I wanted to be happy but I feared I was dying
I didn't want to die and I didn't want to lose my transient form
energies shifting in and out of being
They say the body is but a vehicle for the spirit
That all good things are just a matter of time
I told you that I loved you and I meant it with my whole heart
May it be enough wind to fill the sails and carry me home
In Jesus' Name,
Amen
