Confession

Original Submission by Dikela Khuse a.k.a romeo

Preacher can I confess?

There's this woman I don't know of yet,but she sits alongside God.

And I swear her nurting smile shepards me like the Lord's rod.

She's as soft as a dove

And strong as God's love.

In the desert of doubt,she's my fountain of peace.

A Pslam in my night,a holy release.

She feels like my high.

Grown from the Garden of Eden,the "apple" of my eye.

Individually we're whole,but together we're more.

Indeed i am a sinful man,but preacher as i walked through door

I asked:

Could she be my companion as I dwell in the house of the Lord?

Poem.
