He Loves
By Irresistible
He loves so freely without fear in his heart,
I did not realize until tonight that I meant so much,
He pushes previous hurt and pain deep within,
To experience the love I have to give.
A heart that has been shattered, torn, and tattered
Thrown along the shore for a wave to have
Mercy on and wash away the pain.
He has walked barefoot in the sand which is my
Mind and restored the pieces that were left behind.
He loves on levels I have never seen, and there are
More to come of that I am sure.
His breeze is the emotional support that I have so craved.
I savor each kiss from his lips.
He loves so freely and at times I have to ask why me?
What makes me so different from all the rest?
I seem to do nothing extraordinary, except listen when he speaks,
A voice of an African king. I admire his sense,
Wise beyond his years, I run my fingers through his locs,
To relax his being.
I fill a void in his soul that he was
Missing but now has been found. With each word he speaks
I am speechless, which leaves a lump on my heart,
Which makes it hard to swallow and makes it hard to breathe.
A shallow feeling overwhelms my
Chest and I do have to confess that it is his love that has this effect.
At times just his voice along brings tears to my eyes,
Amazed that someone loves me so much in this day and time.
He loves so freely and I ask how, he says it is
God that has taught him this gift.
A man that loved so freely he gave his only son, he now freely gives that love to me.
He loves so freely without fear and on this day I will do the same.
