You Love My Soul
I love you
because you have always been
the lover of my soul.
Even when my life was completely
out of control,
When a worm body
I wanted to hold,
None around,
You loved my soul.
When I needed someone else
To feel like myself
When my self esteem
Was put on a shelf
You loved my soul.
At the points in my life
When I wanted to die
When all my thoughts
were I, I, I,
You loved my soul.
When I had no human friends
And it seemed
My world came to an end,
You loved my soul.
You loved my soul before the thought of my conception
was milliseconds old,
You loved my soul.
When my body was racked by tragedy,
from a blown out knee
to things inside me,
You loved my soul.
You loved my soul
When at 18 years old
I had a daughter to hold.
No rings, no marriage
Even a prayer of miscarriage
You loved my soul.
You always have and always will
even inspite of the things I do,
That often puts distance
Between me and you,
I love y ou Abba Lord
and thank you graciously
Because you love my soul
Even in spite of me.
