Love Poem: Where We Met

Where We Met

Heaven kisses earth 
In Holy refining Fire
Here you bore me 
At the foot of the Cross
Your blood flowed
Washed me
Here you gave me birth 
In such travail

I know not how 
You could have borne this anguish
This excruciating pain
My pure true - Turtle Dove
You willingly laid down your perfect life
Allowed them to take away
Your heart
The place of Your Sacred Flame
It was this that released me from 
Hells domain

So holy is your love 
So fervent is your desire 
For my heart
Can I keep anything back from you? 
Your eyes are like dove’s eyes
Imploring
So soulful 
So earnest 
So fervently concerned 
Lest I be lost in Hell’s desire forever

No! 
There is nothing I can keep back-
From You-My darling
My one and only true love
I am won by your pure Love
Forever
At the secret place where we met
The place where heart and heaven meet
The place of your earnest Love 
For my soul 
The Cross 
Your total commitment 
Has won - me
I am yours- forever.
