Just a Small Share

Just a Small Share

Is your heart enough?
On a hot, humid summer day—
The sweat glistening,
Running down your toes

That strongly beating heart
Gifts your stamina and strength
That all can witness

Is your heart enough?
On a cold, bitter winter day,
When the ache
Is bone-deep?
On a broken, wasted day,
When nothing works,
And effort feels lost?

Sufficiency?
Your heart—
Abundance?
Is it large enough?
Is there a profusion
To share
With me?

Your endurance
With mine—
What grace.

Two hearts,
With more than enough—
A sacred combination
Of abundance.

Am I asking too much?

Does it—
Require
A leap
Of faith?

Can I
Take You
To
The Stars?

And Both
Of Our
Hearts…
Find
Heaven
Together?

●→∞

To the Infinite

Is my heart enough?
Through summer’s sweat, through winter’s pain,
Its pulse, a spark that storms sustain.
With yours, a grace that lights the way,
Two hearts, as one, in endless day.

Too much to ask? No—love’s not so.
The leap of faith makes starlight flow.
To the stars, I’ll go, with you,
Our hearts, entwined, find heaven true.
●→∞
From one, we soar, to boundless skies,
Where love’s infinity never dies.

Epiphany

Just a small share.
Faith is the path.
To everlasting love.

●→∞→♥
From self, to eternity, to love.
Transcendence
