Conversation With Myself




Father become my day

so then he was done
the father told the son
a tale of pain in which the father
could have been undone
but he loved intensely
never to be loved in return
and from these flames
like gold
he did walk away

and with this tale
in the world the son did grow
he grew
and loved
met a girl
they loved she ran
he gave to others
then they'd take away
father no longer here
only an example remained
the son pressed on
always reflecting a life
but for the purpose of this
lets call it a day
the son strained
to reflect that day
when pain resembled perspective
and rain seemed farther away
you see the son realized
which from this some stray
the more he loved
gave and did not take away
the closer to his fathers perfect love
he would stay
and besides
with the love of his father
any son can make it through a day


Authors note: this is not only a poem about Jesus Christ but realizing what love is through him. Love is benefitting others at the expense of self. Love is more than loving those who love you. When you go beyond the safety zone you find out what love is. Loving your enemies and those who tear you in two.

Mother Theresa once said

"I have found the paradox, that if you love until it hurts, there can
be no more hurt, only more love."


Love is more than we imagined. Its Beautifully perfect.
