The Capture and Rescue

All my life I have waited I have longed for salvation I have dreamt of the day when… My world receives its savior And after years of searching, You found me Hidden deep in the onyx horizon Transparent with the sun’s glow Where freedom was never known Isolated from all things sentimental There you found me, And there, to my surprise, you captured me With no resistance, Taking me into your possession Ignorant to the fact that… Your capture, was my liberty A rescue And little did you know that, You have broken the chains of involuntary celibacy Saving me from a lifetime of solitude and despair You’ve become my safe haven, You are my sanctuary, Bestowing upon me purpose, Providing me with hope, Granting me grace, For you have captured my heart And rescued my love
