love poem #1

when the night falls soft and silent

when the world has gone to sleep

here I sit awaiting words

that you will gently speak to me

speak to me of depth and beauty

of love and trust and human hearts

how we turn so very quickly

how we swiftly fall apart

speak to me of restoration

of the work your hands can do

of the sweetness of salvation

of the rest I find in you

tell me how you formed the mountains

how you put the stars in place

how you breathe your life and meaning

into this lonely human race

here I sit in awe and wonder

hanging on your every word

with each beat my heart grows fonder

my only wish – to love you more
