Spiraling, swirling, swiftly-
Embracing, Dancing
Step in and step out
Swaying to our own beat
Your hand in mine
Let me slink from my seat
Let this romance take speed
The passion behind Your gaze
Entrances, empowers, engulfs
My very soul
Whispers in my ear
Bring warmth to my heart
Dazedly, drifting to and fro
Deep desperation and longing flow
Refreshing, I breathe You in
Restoring, rebuilding me into we
While music spins and lyrics speak
Neither has tasted what I seek
There is no tune that can be sung
No poem can escape my lungs
You are beyond all beauty. Truly,
My resolution and conclusion
This story begins and ends with You.

I just keep re-reading this.
Over.
Over.
Over.
Over.
Over again.
matt… i really like this. it is so vivid. as i was reading through it, i
felt like i was feeling all of the emotions along with you. there is desperation in it, but your hope pervades all of that.
i feel like this poem portrays one of those moments that i like to call “inkling moments.” it’s like there is a revelation and a new understanding that brings excitement and joy that you never want to leave… though, you know in a moment it will only be a memory, it is beautiful.
we’ll have to talk more in person, but i am impressed 🙂
