I desire...

It's been awhile.
There's been up's. There's been down's. I have no doubt it will continue that way but one thing is constant and that is my desire for God and a deep relationship with Him. So I'd like to share something I wrote back in September. It has no title but here it is...

I desire an everlasting romance.
Pages numbered to the end of time as I know it
And beyond.
To love with passion
To be consumed with admiration for You
For the word of Your mouth
to be written on my heart
with the most delicate of penmanship
To be dressed in Your stories
countless stories of heroes and love
I long for my each and every thought
to be held captive to You
Grace; like a silk garment flowing
in the wind, grasping my being,
hugging every edge of me, even the sharp
Surrendering my mind to You
every moment of those days.
Shaping my actions to be poems
written with the grandest themes of love.
To lay at Your feet and seek favor with You.
Coming to You with my heart's knees to the ground
Hands raised high
to offer up my sacrifice.
My praises transform into jewels
that swiftly journey to Your head
crowning You as King of my heart
Forever More.
Just to know that I have brought
a smile to the gleaming pearls.
Only You are worthy of all Glory.
I've come to hold the gaze of Your eyes.
Hold Mine. Hold Me.
I don't want to even leave Your presence
Even when I do, I really don't.
