This is poetry's pride
It's a poets problem
The compilation of words
Spoken like a sword wielded
All we have is voice
a noise to compliment thought
Speech is a vital choice
Maybe I'm in love with love itself
Fearing the sacrifice love requires
A love that endures all the struggle and strife
I want a love that cuts lies like a knife
I want a love that ties truth like a knot
I want love
Romans 5:1-8 (NIV)
Peace and Hope
"1 Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, 2 through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we boast in the hope of the glory of God. 3 Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; 4 perseverance, character; and character, hope. 5 And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.
6 You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. 7 Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person someone might possibly dare to die. 8 But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us."
