Worship

I will wrap your peace
Tight to my skin,
Breathe in your breath
As it flows over my face,
And turn my face to heaven
Where your glory is displayed.
In this moment I let go
Of my tired soul,
And rest in your arms.
Oh my lover how I have longed
For your touch, your quiet kiss
In evening's cool, sliding
The heavy day off my weary shoulders.
I heard your voice in my labor,
Sweat and grime covered me,
And my heart longed to leap
Into the skies to find you.
Instead I trudged,
Tending your creations,
Their bright colors a mimic
Of your beauty's face.
"I love you" whispered in my ear,
I twine my fingers with yours.
Pull your arm tighter around me.
I don't want to leave this place.
Hold me until night gives way
To day's harsh heat.
Sing to me of your love.
I rest in your heartbeat.
