Inventive Love

Tangled up inside my head, the thoughts of you, stitch and thread,

sewn together by each tied up seam,

A quilt of love wrapped around my dreams,

a pillow waiting for your head, left hand side of our marriage bed

 an ocean keeps us far apart, yet distance forms strength in absent hearts,

through the window as I keep watch, yearning for your tender touch,

I stand undressed by moonlight shadow, where your command leads, I simply follow,

at the strike of twelve the clock demands, that before you naked I now stand,

the ritual we began long time past, to aid this love, to make it last,

words we speak are said in rhythm, his heart is mine and my heart given

Hear my love the words I say as angels carry each line away,

to settle gently in your ear, this my love keeps you ever near,

I reach out my hand through time and space, to so very almost touch your face,

as a tear falls to touch my lips, I know its your inventive goodnight kiss,

Each moment that we never share, is beautiful when I sense you there,

be safe whilst on this storm at sea,

and hurry my love, back home to me.

Loving Pauper

Onto the parchment of my pain I write

Journal you are my only release

where the story of my ache can be told

Once I held the riches of her heart in my hands

The very substance that placed love upon the throne of my kingdom

Fate had her hand to play

For her rules be dictated by none

Dealt to the many

Her avarice to satisfy

Unto the dungeon of your cold heart I was banished

To be a soul that doth crave her attention

Won't she heed my call?

Hearken unto the sounds of my cry

Mercy, I beg of you

Clinging in desperation of her touch

Worthy only of the paucity of her depth to love

My being laden with the burden of regret and need

Conflicts of my mind

A war of the heart and soul

Hungering for a taste of her lips

My gluttony only to be satisfied with the scraps of love thrown from her table

Once I was her King

I remain ever faithful now

Her loving pauper

Lord of Mercy

Rough, painful, daunting to the depths of my bare soul.
My heart aches for trouble waits at my doorstep.
Pursued and hunted, my life is ever at risk.
Many snares are set before me,
I know no mercy from man
The eyes of my heart are wide open
Searching for a way, through this midst of darkness;
And they only find the One and Only way:
The Way, the Truth and the Life.
Christ my Lord and Saviour.
Christ my Lord is my sanctuary of refuge
my rock of hope,
my wine of love,
my tower of strength
Christ is my LORD
in HIM i find Mercy,
More mercy in a day,
than all men have given me my whole life.
