Infinitely I Adore You
In the company of darkness, I find my mind allured by your existence
My heart thumps against my chest, a daring heart…a longing heart
It wishes to come to your light, so it may cast the prettiest of shadows
And so you may shine brighter against the contrast of its blackness
My heart is not fully black—no…it couldn’t be, as it is fixated on you
In the shade of tall trees, I look beyond myself and into the sky
The beauty overhead is astounding, and reminds me of your kindness
It reminds me that someone still looks up, even when Death peeks down
It reminds me that the space Beyond welcomes my heart to freedom
Into your sweet embrace
Into your loving spirit, your surviving sensitivity
Into the Beyond where shadows and lights dance as equals
Take my hand, and I will watch your step
As you explore the lands I have long roamed alone
And you will guide me through myself, and into Beyond
Where love prevails and quiets Death’s hefty cries
In your company, my existence becomes more meaningful, brighter
My heart and body are full of gratitude, thanks to your idyllic touch
It no longer longs, wishing for the distance between us to diminish
It smiles and gains new color, distinctive against many dark nights
You remind me to see ahead, straight into your delectable love…
And fold against enlightenment, strong and resilient
Into the fray revealing truths that only you and I can relay
Into the very soul of your genius, mastered by your faith
Tonight, I allow you to enter my dim-lit world
In hope you may share in my sacred epiphanies
In hope that you will see how infinitely I adore you
So we might distribute our insights to bud new stars
