My love is violent, too hot to hold
The longing burns deep inside my chest
Like a fire up in my bones
Weary, longing for rest
With my hand laid faintly upon your heart
Beating against my ear as we lie in wait
Hoping time will create
a space for us
A pyre with the past as timber
And loves past as the embers
That rise afloat the very breath of God
Who gathered us like kindling
Perhaps you were the love of another lifetime
Whom my hearts been hard pressed to find
The very thing my soul longs for
I have it all but yet want more.
I haven’t known a love like this
I heard you before you came
Lifted my head like you called my name
