I will wait

Dear Eve.

,I know we haven't met yet but

At night the organs of my thoughts bed wet with fear

Every morning i mournWith torn robes of my heart

And ashes covering the scalp of my skull i wonder

Why teens like us bury ourselves in a casket of false love Six feet beneath the grounds of lies,deceit and immaturity

Telling ourselves that we're old enough for love

Only to repeatedly betray our consciences Until we find out that love and lust are just two different words that make two different sentences

Now,I must confessLike CHRIST I've been tempted

With photocopies of you who try to imitate yo

uBut yet rejected by the gatekeepers of my heart because they want tour origina

lBut i,I choose to wait for you

To eclipse my eyes to the false you'sthat invade the temple of my eye's day and nightI pledge with a crossed heart that CHRIST Shall be my first aid kit when ever I'm emotionally wounded

To find solace in the beauty of his touch

To cuddle my self in the warmth of his words through cold nights and winter days

Until i locate the safety in your arms

I will wait for you

To fix my compass on the map of patience

And even though my hormones moan for Jezebe

l Against you i won't rebel

Cos just like Jacob you shall be my Rachel

You see,It took him 14yrs to get herBut eve even if i serve x2 of heI won't go into Leah

Like Joseph i will flee

Am a prisoner Only to be free when i see you

Till the day i stare into the pupil of your eyes to tell you that"I LOVE YOU"

As your breath shall remain a signature fragrance on my skin

I pray i find you as solemn as MaryAnd you shall find me

Where the wisdom of Solomon is accompanied by the strength of Sampson and the dignity of Joseph pursues the deep humility of Jesus

Ready to willingly give myself up for you as he gave himself u for the Church His bride

As those lashes rumpled the freshness of our Saviours Smooth soft skin

The lashes of our love shall whip the flesh of our pride

Leaving me with scars of obedience all to the will of CHRIST

Till those rings permit the tip of my lips to be baptized by your

sI shall steadfastly starve myself so i shall get full the night i taste the fruit from your vine

Till the warmth of my hands collide with the smoothness of your skinI will wait

Till my frigid soul locates the beauty in your smiles

We will drown the Pharaoh's of our love In the sea of our unity

And our hearts shall forever beat to the soundtrack of youthfulness even when wrinkles invade the territory of our skin

So here i stand ,Like a wrapped Xmas gift waiting to be opened by you

Cos only you possesses the key to the doors of my hear

tI promise to diligently sustain my decency and even in insanityI will wait for you

So till then Stay safe

See you in the future
