ZIPPING THE LINE

How does one 
Restore a soul
That believes 
Suffering her lot

How does one
Bring trust home
To one who knows
The beauty of alone

How does one
Touch the bottom
Of a broken well
Run dry

How does one
Hold the essence
Of unshakable faith
In fleeting presence

LOVE ZIPS THE LINE

With every failure
Each disappointment
The teeth are 
Reunited and secured

He invites with peace
She provides the flow
Every morsel used
To bring joy to the whole

Such a huge gap
A long way running
Never getting done
From bottom to top

In an instant
The last one is zipped
The journey is over
Trust, finally clicked

My GOD LOVES me
