Reasons to continue


 
Seven reasons I have loved you: 
One. I see the God in you radiating at all times.
Two. My skin is sacred to you and left untouched.
Three. Your words reach me in places your hands can not possibly travel.
Four. You are welcoming of my profound thoughts.
Five. You share your Sundays with me as if they were the last plate of soul food. 
Six. My sadness no longer scares you, but in fact it draws you in.
Seven. Professing love to the world is something you are fond of and manage to love even when you are tired.
 
The only reason I continue to love you:
One. Our souls are interwoven by God Himself.
 
He intended our paths to cross, and I know that one day I will have more reasons to continue loving you. For this is just the commence of our new life. I have faith because I love you.
