What we long for

03.02.06 (7:04 pm)   [edit]

 






We long for the touch
Deeper than our skin,
More hidden from view
Than our heart…..
With its lust and desires
That ensnares and deceives us.
The desire,
Flowing unchecked
From our center deep,
Compels us to seek,
Hopefully to find,
That which will give us peace
Lasting in its healing effect,
Deep eternal in the love shown,
Not ephemeral
Like morning dew before the Sun.
Leading to freedom
And not slavery.
This is often our lot,
Given the name freedom,
But in reality
Binds us with chains unbreakable;
But by grace,
An eternal state,
Since love is freely given
Without need or compulsion,
All we need do is say FIAT.

good stuff - reminded me of :

He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also, he has put eternity into man's heart, yet so that he cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end. ecclesiastes 3:11

I think we are made to search, without it life would be stagnant, perhaps boring.
