I can tell by the how and what you say
That you are not looking for me to my dismay
That you are instead after someone younger
When time goes by it seems even longer
I can only tell you what is within me
Drawing solely on His Word and love He gives me
No matter the circumstances I am in
He is always with me, even if I sin
Some days my piety is lacking
And I am humbled by the King
As He reveals His cross and His Sacrifice
I remember He is greater than any vice
So I learn by His Spirit’s whispers and inklings
And learn that the world hates me and kings
Want you to understand that I am in so much pain
It has me reeling in anger and disdain
But there is something more
I am standing on your shore
Believing in a God of love and I found more
More love than I can possibly imagine, I adore
Love that is never lost
Love that never gives up with a cost
Love that pierces even the strongest heart
Such as yours if you have lived from the start
I felt and lived your pain with every breath
I was conscious even after death
I know there is more
Love is power, so use it, I implore
In their poverty they find that love is the key
To being sustained above any memory
So I pour out my love in droves
And let it multiply like the loaves
So receive your fill I let it pour out
While I am here I will not even shout
Should expect love in return despite my stout
On that note I may take a different route
I have circumvented even death by love
Heard your pain by the power of the Dove
Shrouded from a hidden world between ours
Filled with the dead seeking more not in bars
I have been surrounded by a suffocating void
No breath that produces pain is one to avoid
But even now I do not fear nor lose my joy
Because I am one with love that is no ploy
