Its not your words but your sentences that move me, and our short silences are like dancing in the dark. I don’t ‘like’, don’t ‘love’ you, there’s no time – you’re always there and we’ll never stop falling in love with romance itself.
Days into days and we get by, weeks into months that I’m not lonely, the years pass by and I’ve someone to hold back with me the whole time. Tomorrow, tomorrow - I’ll always say more but never say yes.
(Commitment)
I hang on and you hold out but its Him who pulls us through, so push in, pull together, push on. Some see romance set in worlds laden with justice and dreams come true. But you see things like I do, a broken world with less and less to wake up to, injustices and the passion that says share your dreams, give out dreams, let the God-light in and use me here, let the nightmares go and everyone wake up.
You see help and your commitment.
(Pretty)
Your eyes are my jasmimes to blink and shine, your soul diamonds that I didn’t buy. But its not your curves its your conscience, I can’t stop thinking of you, when you talk I can’t help watching you. You look normal but you look electric and when you’re sure, I’m sure.
(Compassionate)
Its better than that, you’re fervent. The mistakes you make are blinkered by your zeal. Some put aside their passions and settle into life. You don’t put your passion down for one second, not when its uncomfortable in order to settle in, not when its hard so you can lighten your load, not when you’re tired to go to sleep. You fight, but you also cry.
Some couples fight together but we stand back and hold on, because its Christ in you and its Christ in me, Him and us not us and Him.
(Love)
Don’t be pitied, don’t settle down near love and hope its prospect gives you meaning, not once He’s shown you His most excellent way. Don’t take the choice when you can’t choose, don’t look at others and envy their mistakes. Wait for her or wait for him, but make sure you wait for Him, for His beauty never ages.
God
