I remember the first time I met You
I fell in love.
It's true what they say:
"He'll sweep you off your feet".
You won me over at the blink of an eye.
I don't know why, but I wanted You.
You were more than just a want,
I had a rush of excitement thinking about You.
I needed You!
Suddenly like the rushing of the wind You became the Captain of my thoughts.
"The apple of my eye".
My muse!
My all!
I took You to the ends of the earth,
I spread You like the sands of the seas.
You were my all!
I lost sight of me.
You became me.
More so I became You.
The fibre of my being.
The love of my life.
You made me love.
Love became me.
Like the stars of the night blue sky I healed broken hearts.
The Light of the world!
You set me up on high
Made me shine
The delight of all men.
The fruit of Your affection.
Then came trouble
Fast fell I.
Caught up in its face.
The higher calling far from mind
Yet You kept loving and kept hoping.
Your love came rushing
Reminded me of Itself
Enlightened me of Its existence.
Quenched every sense of guilt
On high it lifted me
Never disqualified
Ever qualified by It.
This great Love.
A shield,
A place,
A residency.
All this and more
are You great Love.
