iv.

your whispers are soft

like a cool summer breeze floating through my hair

chills dance on my skin

as your breath sweeps over me


your instruction is gentle

like the harmony of piano keys

you are softly and surely

one step ahead of me

completing what i cannot


my eyes are no longer just mine

but they see vastly, and with greater purpose now

filling with your tears for this world and its anguish


my ears no longer only hear

the beautiful laughter of friends

but are now privy to the cries of the widow- of the orphan- of the homeless


my heart is no longer searching

for comfort in a love of my own

but it is craving to comfort those who have never felt love before


you are more than i can see

more then i can feel

more than i can comprehend


yet you chose to affect me

with your love


and i am deeply humbled





-me
