Such A Love

When such a love is birthed as this

What am I left to do

But stand aback and wonder in awe

Of the existence of I and you

I’ve dreamt dreams that before I wouldn’t dare to dream

And see in ours new things I once forbade myself to see

For I feared the end before there was yet a start

I spent the rising and fallings building an iron gate ‘round my heart

But once a rising came, the beams of the sun shone on your face

I was enlightened then that the triumph to this story was mother grace

For a love such as this is impossible to deserve, yet still further

Impossible to earn

For a thousand lifetimes of righteous works

And a sea filled with blameless hearts

Would still not equate one to be worthy

Of such a love
