A Love That Not Even Jesus Could Live With










Sweetness
My sweet love for you
Was bitter for you
It was
All in all
Far too much
Too much
For you

I guess
I know now
Even love may wash away
Seeking escape from my worries

What you felt for me
Was what?
Was it
A Love that
Not even
His Holiness, Jesus could live with?

And so,
So many,
Out there
Will prefer crucifixions
That are endless
To a quiet and deeply adoring patience
That I had for you
