I lie on my side kness bent
I feel his love cover me
Protectting, caring
I listen to the silence
Thoughts of him envelope me
Like a soft warm blanket
I feel the darkness
Drawing in on me
Yet he shines light to all I cannot see
I close my eyes
And feel my heart beating out
My desires and longings
I try to surrender to sleep
But my mind will be still
Searching, examing, understanding
Slowly by piece
In ways I cannot explain
I am laying before him the pieces of my heart.
On the floor so he may tread on them at will
In his hand so he may use them at will
Before his eyes so he may examine them at will
And yet I pray his foot treads lightly
His hand holds them tenderly
His eyes be blinded with love
So I lie here waiting and wanting
Waiting to see where he leads me
Wanting against all reason to give even more
