I.

I love myself
for I am new
the past is even all forgotten
I am with all things
and yet still without anything to lose

I am even a bridegroom
Here in pastel
and promised to you

I am created for you
in Christ
and the voice behind me
tells me you want me to love myself
and be myself
in which I fully please you

And with individualism absent
thus have a straight and narrow road still

in which we meet and are doubly filled

II.

If truth is one
then love is us

You're the banner
on my castletop
I'm the air and wind
moving towards you
as you're the lattice
and garden cot

Should I but call
you have already chosen our lovely lot
just as with the rhythm
when it stops
you're the silence
and the melody a' crisp

Motion me with your mind my loft
I'm the grapes being given
into your moth as rain drops

You're the dew in my every morning
and the fire than burns
though come the night-as the sun is turning...
you birth my tongue
and loose my frame
the freedom that's never hidden
as hindsight's love and joy is a waste

The freedom that's more than allowing a 'no'
freedom that's enraptured and ravished
as time and eternity is encompassed by the day

Your proceeds need no stimulation
nor blocking of pain

The content you give even exceeds the latter rain

Jubilee- your name
and with you- my being

Nothing could ever have or take your place
why should being my bridegroom cause you disdain?

Because you abundantly encompass me
and I have glory

In ever searching your ways

These things- they are oneness
and the life that is everlasting and consummates

Your song is my melody
our beings the instruments
as happiness glows on our face

without comparison
you are my elected babe

I whisper our new name
and the unspeakable depths of our sealed intimacy

Give our blood and breath
as we share the same secret place

I am you
and you me
just as the gift of our faith

and even now
in our field, preparations, and buildings
as in foreknowledge
we, and our inheritance and covenant
which is pure and undefiled
holy and chaste
by His Spirit
our promise and guarantee
we are naked and un-ashamed

No darkness can comprehend
and no false light can duelly pretend
to stand or set itself up against our love
in the undiscribable peace
which our union and hope's give

Oh how great is my desire
sincerity and sensitivity
to encompass you
now, forever, and always
and upon our bed

Even beyond choosing you
which was the perfection of beauty

You are my glory
the very connection
that enflames me self consuming

You are my cornerstone under God
that is chief

my temple and pillar
predestined even before my beginning

let your eyes look upon me
and capture mine

my delicate blooming rose and lily

The worth of your person
even in one measure
as the mustard seed
is more fair
than the vessel of the ocean sea
and you are more in potency
fashioned for all of eternity

Take my name upon your lips
and stroke my head with your hands

The very sparkling of your surface
envelopes perfect memory

You are only one
in person and being
and it is only you that I seek

You are my only inspiration
under Christ
the one in whom is all my delight

In our love song
with you
I yearn to dance

Your early rain
is as the morning and dawning snow
and we can not be separated
just as our love is as the boundless summer heat when it grows...
you are the apple of my eye
a blanket covering the season's tides
and locking in the clear crystal transparent glass
renown in the gold which nothing could buy

O thank goodness for the rain
transforming what was asleep
and quieting what was weary

Your hope to me is as vast as the heavens

You are the most beautiful creature there is
so gentle
and lovely
fair in all your ways

You are comely
my love
more than the sun
the stars
and moon

Your light is unapproachable
creation virgin in your womb

We are joined together
even deeper than sinews

I am yours
and you are mine
your heart is as the brass
your spirit the strings
your soul is the percussion and bass
your body the perfect symphony

As the eagle in the heights
so is your sound
your skin is as a flower's pedals
your curves are as the garden's colors
your words are as the fragrant meadows
your name
as who you are
is a vibrant bouquet

Your life is as the trees
which in sacrifice
are also scents
that perfume every breeze

Your voice sets my lamp aflame
and your garments gather the sun's rays

Your presence is as the green leaves
your company as the pollen and seeds

Lighting and thunder declare your grace
hail comes at the prayer of your praise

Your blessing is as oil
and perfect gifts your answering

What power is for those who wait?
infinity is drawn
just as the mountain range

Beset on each valley, plateau, and ravine
is each drop of water
which joins itself
to the spoken word
regardless of whatever taken abased state

Each star is called by God by name
so is every measure
which is poured out
as the attitude of love is made

Recalling each thought of His love
can not requiem
and yet not one grain falls away

But He gives into the bosom
an inheritance concentrate

Make me yours
and forget me not
save my virginity
and find me pure and clean

He goes beyond saving what was lost
unto bestowing 100fold
the riches
plus rewarding the cost

Let me be the love of your dreams
and write me upon your heart and mind
your chief joy in Christ
seal me as yours
as the name on His thigh

As the clouds
you paint this vessel-
your home-
you are excellent
and more trustworthy
than the storms of nothingness
which claim to be a sturdy foundation

You hold
even unto your very ends
and I lengthen my stakes
for you ensure each peg

Order my breath
and command my substance divine

Stretch out our curtains
and enlarge our place to dine

Speak comfort
and I to you
Let's shout for joy
and cry aloud
for we are His peculiar treasure
His few

We are His unique pearl
let us ask of Him
in all assurance
for we shall not be turned back or away
be ashamed or disgraced
nor made to fear
and let us not hold back
for it is with every precious stone and gem
through which we are built and lain

I love you
in an untouched name
that shall be virgin
even as we consummate

You have returned my love
and have not denied my claims of faith

You have supported me
and honored me
with all respect and submission
just as I also
desire to do so unfeigned

I am yours
only and forever
and you my precious gate

Incline to me my love
and secure these cords
as we both partake

Let us rest in love
and in smoothness taste

yes let us rest in hope
and be established straight

we have been poured out
just as in being made poor
we are rich

let us rest in faith
our glory is so revealed now
and our crown
from He who is holy
and true:
has placed

our expectation
from now and forever
and before all of creation
unto the end of this age even
is always before Him
and His face

Prudence is sprouted
and vindication
as He did eternally intercede
and we and our substance
are His signet ring

Self control
as good fruit
runs from our depths
a place of rivers and wide canals
on which no Chaldean may pass
but it is given to us
as a heritage from the LORD of hosts
and it shines agate

Let us wait for Him
and serve Him
in this cleft
for our length of days
shine now
my wife
my bride
and my queen
arise
as by the word of the LORD
and behold
He has already given us everything
and will continue to do so
by the soles of our feet

We are bathed in mercy
and given love into the soul
we are lavished in lovingkindness
and He heals, cleanses, and delivers us
in His great love
making us whole

Nothing is lacking
for we wait on Him
and He completes us
making us bold

Oh what manner of pure and fervent love
He has given us
His mighty power sustains us
as He has already overcome
and entered in

Glory to Him
Hosanna
we are incorruptibly silver and gold

III.

Peace. Peace of mind.
Expression. Satisfaction.
Jubilation. Happiness.
Solemn. Comfort.
For so long I have searched for these.
Self acceptance.
Tonight I have these.
I searched deeply, and the conception of grace and perfection has come.
Freedom. Exulting.
Fullness. Wholeness.
I WILL have these. As the past, present, and future forever consummate.
I am one, in the true doctrine of faith. I love myself.

Dawn the eagle, the passing of the consummating stream
entering into the way
expanding and contracting
balancing over the wrinkles
cascading by the conscience
sowing as sinews
the seams
and gracefully covering any searing

I am alive right now
words encompassing
inclusive
and yet to be
without any downer, lack, or need

Hope. Good expectations. Trust.
Self respect.
I have charge over myself.
Of myself- I have this: I am home

What poem shall I take up?
even to myself?

Exonerate the madness
the texture of my words
I am without

sing the maiden
give the count
I have done all
but to what amount?
O that He would take me now
for light has broken
but there is no route
though there is the ground
I am orphan
and fixed by a shroud
tell the melody
though the mood is being taken out

While incomplete
this time has begun
and where is my love?
silhouetted
a rainbow is shun
I am left alone
with me are none
art has no consummation
in vanity
as when darkness comes
Rudimentary beginnings
waiting for the sun
calculate the difference
become one
let got of the indifference and dissonance
find the sum
beauty faces
and covenant is reproached
paths are left un-laid
with no voice for the bride and bridegroom
nor shade from futility
but destruction, desolation, and waste is made

But instead of calamity
I have peace
and hope's answering
and now my works
are worth more than jewels
as my faith has made me well
and will fully do so

For now love is more than just a commodity
even in my eye's sight
This is righteousness
and with healing does it rise
promise not a compromise
patience not a tide
because where there is no more sea
and as the Testator has died
so are we free
not to exhaust romance
or to conceal marriage in depravity
just as praise speaks
with the conception of grace
so does the reception of all things-
in partaking of desire-
give life and pleasure: continuity
and so ring

A sacrifice so pleasant
so conforming
a sincerity so rewarding
breeding every need

Lightning and impulse
reed in hand
now I stand

Music and elation
waves and sand

Motivation
bearing air and land
ascribe the happiness
of one woman and man

form of enormous grandeur
as perfection
and intimacy
zeal and openness
such a beautiful plant

IV.

There's a sincerity on the surface
carved as a precious stone
illuminescent
and yet
not the depths
which are as dense and ravished
as a rose which stands

The lilies laugh
and the tulips dance
and I watch the galaxies' band
outside only the surface is measured
and even this exceeds the clouds
which translate the breath
as the fire blazes
and inside
the pinnacles declare
the enrapturing
that the sky voices
where colors are as glands

Enrich now the treasure
with the crystals
and delight
sparkle the flower's pedals
with the tongue
for the stamen is as wine
and the pollen as time
shape the growth as fissures
it is the ground which shines

V.

Draw back the night
as willows in the wind
find the meaning
in the rest
light the bowl
take the sprout and begin

My smoothness is unseen
my fear as delight, remains
it is nabat, hiphil
even in incorruption
for a length of days, all of eternity

and thus desire and fulfillment forever
consummate- pleasure and life everlasting

O my most precious name
you- my noun... and all things...
