down in my heart (where?)

the flowers in a limitless forest

scented sweet and sunshiney i

swear they smiled at me

he sent me flowers and it meant ‘i love you’

i wake up and breathe in this

beautiful taste of living and

laughing that swirls in my chest

hes the air that i breathe and it whispers ‘i love you’

its morning and the light curls

down the window’s glass it

reaches like hands soft and warm

he calls me his light and it feels like ‘i love you’

when night falls and hope is lost

i make a promise in the dark

of all that i am, i am his

i speak it, and its not just ‘i love you’

its that i would know him

without words or sound

without a touch, without sight- i

would know him blind or from a

million miles down and at the worlds

end, he is all that i know i’d give all

that i own and carry him in my fingertips

the ends of my hair and the core of my heart

stand somewhere

high and tell the world

his name and the way he is enough, is enough, is enough

and with his hands outreaching, who

else could ever hold my heart, this

was all that home means and it means

that ill never know what it is

to go unloved because the door is open

and so are his arms and ill never be the same

since knowing that his name is Jesus and

it means ‘i love you’
