Intimate Inclination

Intimate Inclination? Is there something you crave more than intimate love, Does it possibly occupy space of its own? Could a man be deserving, your hand mate to glove? Or are you more a serf, prone in front of a throne? Is it foolishness dreaming that such love exists? I think so (if our will): if God's Love then His gift! Is it err to presume too, that such love persists, You have earned sin's forgiveness, and you won't get stiffed? Can just faith be sufficient? What sources this aid? For we're on a cliff's edge with no rescue in sight? And with debts too egregious to ever be paid. Clear that death is our future, known fact of our plight! I'd say justice too's something we long for although, It's desired more when hurting and not when we win, But our losses can humble us, stretch what we know, It seems winning does little to free us from sin! When you pray that your life gets protected from pain, Is it ego that says? "Trust me, Lord, You're the ONE!" Is the Truth what you're after or what YOU think's gain? LOVE once prayed, "Not my will Lord, but Thy will be done!" Long Tooth August 10, 2018
