Love's All-Encompassing Embrace

My heart is racing. Faster and faster it beats, And with every beat, I feel the heat of your love surrounding me. Surrounding me, engulfing me, grabbing me, hugging me, encompassing me… Til I’m free— free of the burdens, the heartaches, the pain, the guilt, the loneliness. Free of myself, the insecurities and the doubt Wrapped in his love ‘til all the hurt comes out His love—his pure, amazing love that releases the cares. His sweet, unassuming love That is an answer to prayers. It covers my heart With a coat of joy Its thick shield of protection Blocks the noise. Completely comfortable And saturated in your love. It coddles and holds me like a glove. The thought of your love causes my heart to race. I’m fully entwined in love’s embrace.
