I am alone with you.
I bring nothing except your love for me.
You stretch above me,
a canopy of mercy, grace and forgiveness.
You surround me on all sides.
In front and behind,
over and under,
without and within,
before and after,
high and low.
you were
you are
and you always will be,
You fill the known and the unknown
all our knowledge is but a grain of sand
yet, you allow our thoughts
to define you,
frail and flawed as they are,
you give us the permission
to discover you.
Like fish in the sea,
we look for the ocean,
and pride ourselves
in our discovery!
Oh eternity,
oh infinite,
oh endlessness,
your searching for me
breaks all the rules
for divinity.
my rejections of you,
breaks every human hope,
you acceptance of me
shakes creation to the core.
And while we still fight you
with our hammers and nails,
worshipping with our outstretched hands
and our eyes to the skies,
you kneel at our feet
with a washbowl
washing your blood
over our ignorance.
Oh eternity,
oh infinite,
oh life and light
and love,
you stretch over me,
as a canopy,
covering my all in all.
