A love that is in question

My dear I have professed my love for you I know that you were given a vision of me. I stand before you now and yet you turn away. Caught up in rapture of a thing destined to hurt you and defile you. I still hold on, if I am a fool I will not be too much longer, you see when you go about your way in the disobedience of truth. I am in compliance, for you see I love all things in truth. A lie can only mimic it. Lies cant remove the grandeur that is truth. I think of you and the great things within you, but they rust and fall away for if they are not given birth they flow away as in a woman’s cycle. Even as a still birth with that comes all the mourning that accomplishes nothing, It can not be brought back to life. I would wait for you but as time wanes my love, my mind looks for answers, and as it digs and searches it sends what it finds to my heart. My heart is listening, not that a heart should fall to logic, but pain has a way of changing the very shape and meanings of all things. I have a purpose for my life it is grand and noble, it is not to serve me but to serve our God and all those he would have me to minister to, It requires me to be single minded and sure of him. My faith in him and what he has promised He is real to me as even you are, but you should know he is sure in his thoughts and motives, He is as sure, as you are not, and as you are not sure, do you think I am confident in light of what I have seen. Love does many things, it can change a stone filled heart, and even save a life falling out of control. It also lets one who has love of life and self prepare to save himself from a situation promising more pain and suffering.
