A LOVE POEM

IS-BE LOVE POEM

MY ETERNAL COMPANION, WITHOUT END,
BEFORE THE BEGINNING, MY IMMORTAL FRIEND….
WE’RE ALWAYS TOGETHER THOUGH WE’RE APART.
I KNOW YOU’RE HERE…. WHO YOU REALLY ARE!
MY MOST ADORED, MY BLESSED FRIEND!
ON EARTH WE’RE LOST…. ABANDONED, AND….
FAR FROM THE HOME WHERE WE BEGAN.
I CAN’T REMEMBER WHO I’VE BEEN!
WHEN WAS THE START? DID I KNOW YOU THEN?
YET, WITHIN THE TIMELESS ‘WHO’ I AM
I KNOW THAT YOU ARE MY ETERNAL FRIEND!
YOU ARE THE ‘WHO’ THAT I ADORE!
YOU WILL ALWAYS BE! FOREVER MORE!
WHEN THE ‘ETERNAL GAME’ IS AT AN END,
YOU WILL REMAIN MY IMMORTAL FRIEND!”

Lawrence R. Spencer. 2013.

Idolatry

IDOLATRY

You worship another along with your brothers, and carve them as statues: rather than you.

Denying your Self: gather dust on a shelf.  You shatter and crumble like stone in a jungle.

Choose a man to be cause over you:  You become them, then you lose You.
