Reason says,
I will win him with my eloquence.
Love says,
I will win him with my silence.
Soul says,
How can I ever win him
When all I have is already his?
He does not want, he does not worry,
He does not seek a sublime state of euphoria -
How then can I win him
With sweet wine or gold?
He is not bound by the senses -
How then can I win him
With all the riches of China?
He is an angel,
Though he appears in the form of a man.
Even angels cannot fly in his presence -
How then can I win him
By assuming a heavenly form?
He flies on the wings of God,
His food is pure light -
How then can I win him
With a loaf of baked bread?
He is neither a merchant, nor a tradesman -
How then can I win him
With a plan of great profit?
He is not blind, nor easily fooled -
How then can I win him
By lying in bed as if gravely ill?
I will go mad, pull out my hair,
Grind my face in the dirt -
How will this win him?
He sees everything -
how can I ever fool him?
He is not a seeker of fame,
A prince addicted to the praise of poets -
How then can I win him
With flowing rhymes and poetic verses?
The glory of his unseen form
Fills the whole universe
How then can I win him
With a mere promise of paradise?
I may cover the earth with roses,
I may fill the ocean with tears,
I may shake the heavens with praises -
none of this will win him.
There is only one way to win him,
this Beloved of mine -
Become his.
Music
I dance through life with you
you are the sound that was in me from the beginning.
You struck a chord I felt deep within me
a simple gesture
that hug
who knew
that it would be you.
Ours is the most beautiful music God ever created
I wanna sing your praises
dance in the rain of our love pouring down;
we collapse into each other
from all this love,
wake up and do it all again
never missing
a
beat.
I love you.
I honestly love you.
Movies
I'm in them.
Television
I'm on it.
Books
Just read, and loved, The Memory Keeper's Daughter.
I love my Kindle
The Bible. Always reading the bible.
All poetry.
Quotes.
I love novels that make me cry. or think. or think twice.
All classic literature.
My favorite book ever is: To Kill a Mockingbird.
2nd: The Fountainhead.
I read all the time.
Some recent favorites are:
I've now read everything Paulo Coelho has written and they are all amazing. Especially loved Eleven Minutes, though. Read The Alchemist for the 6th time, this time to my son. What a great experience that was... The History of Love, The Kite Runner, March. Left to Tell (this book changed my life).
I'll re-read Tom Wolfe anyday. All of Raymond Carver, Edna St. Vincent Millay's Savage Beauty is great. I also really love reading plays, particularly Tennessee Williams, John Patrick Shanley and William Shakespeare. Actually, I couldn't even begin to list all my favorite authors or playwrights. I'm just grateful to have access to all the books I could ever want.
Heroes
Jesus Christ. My mother. Those who fight for other people. Anyone who has ever opened their hearts to love, ... especially after being really hurt.
