Spoken into love

Into existence you spoke into my life love,

in ways I could not fathom my world changed.

Each subtle whisper in every heartbeat,

pounding to the sounds of silence.

In my eyes now there is new purpose,

a light when all darkness once reigned.

Fate succumbs to what destiny creates,

a word so enticing now my way.

Before there was you I was empty,

a hollow shell cast into the fire.

Endless pain was my meaning,

tortured by what I didn’t understand.

Now that I have you in my life,

everything changes each day.

Searching no longer is my way to deny,

what now I find in such a little word.

In love now I realize why I waited,

how deep your waters do flow.

Painstaking path to enlightenment,

into your heart I am this blood.
