"regrafted rib" - Friday, May 06, 2005

i have never known this kind of love,
which waited all my life to try,
now here you are beside me full,
thus granting me a grateful sigh,
i've wondered all my life if you were real,
so awe struck toward you,
since everything from this day forward
shines with sunlight new,
for everytime i think a thing will come
to ruin all i've tasted,
you stand and show that enemies
in all their efforts wasted,
for you have shown a greater faith
than i inside your heart,
has grown in me a seed which i
had once just at the start,
and so you see my precious jewel
in what you are to me?
restoring all the things inside
that i've forgotten how to be.
so even though i'll fight and deal
with everything the lord requires,
the strength in you which shows itself
has all my hearts desires.

(...i wonder whom you are?)
