Love

I know a man of love 

Ive built a home inside his heart

i have cut myself down the middle 

to open up

to the man i know of love

the cut is beautiful 

a work of art

i know a man of strength 

he lifts the world off my shoulders

his touch lingers on my skin

they leave invisible dots 

connectting the highway lines 

that lead me home

he takes away my pain 

i can feel it through my flesh and bones

i know a man of strength 

i long for his soul

A river runs deep through this cut with purpose

the man of love 

the man of strength 

floats through my stream of hopelessness.

he gives my faith length

id rather be burned and stained 

than never to get to know the

man of love the

man of strength.
