I wrote this years ago, and alas many hard drives ago. A whimsical search this AM & much to my surprise I found it. So I will share my heartfelt joy at stumbling across one of my poems with all of you by sharing it.
Duality
Look into my eyes…
…for within their ice lies frozen
a mystery…
that the hands
that feed my hunger to submit
also cradle my soul
like a newborn…
that the raw taste
of Your hunger for my final surrender
starves my will of any temptation
to resist Your lyrical whims and fancies
as You play me…
my flesh,
exposed and taut
like a canvas stretched ‘neath the expert hands
of an Artist
who paints my soul with strokes of leather
and rejoices in its betrayal of my will
like a Lazarus…
You have bound me in chains,
restrained me with rope,
blinded me with silk
and silenced my cries with trust.
Look thru my eyes…
for afloat in their pools
reflects the desire to bathe in Your faith
and wash away my doubt.
i need You…
to make my flesh burn
and eyes cinder
and reduce my will to ashes,
so that i might be born again like a phoenix…
…and be cradled in Your hands
once again
