love is nothing if not personal
there must be freedom to be ourselves
meek, mild, or otherwise
with one who says they love us
this poem about love appears in my upcoming book on the nature of the spiritual journey and how we work out faith, on the ground, in relationship with the people we love in healthy and, often unhealthy ways; the book is about getting healthy and strong on all fronts to glorify God with our whole heart
This poem appears in my BOOK, “Longings of the Soul, a poetic response.”
