You
You say you love my smile;
But have you ever felt my smile?
You say you love my eyes;
But do you see your reflection in it?
You say you love my voice;
Listen closely how my lips always call out to you.
How my eyes always seek out for you.
How my skin tingles when you breeze through.
How my heart feels when I see you.
And how much do I want you.
Being 
Pure in heart is
Like being pure as gold 
With amazing shine that glitters 
Oh Lord 
Make my heart pure so that I may
See the goodness of God. 
And his beauty 
In me
Matthew 5:8

Such a mess, am I really?
Scared to fall in love, still longing for one.
One makes my heart smile
One makes my eyes shine
Do I really deserve your love?
Am I capable of something this pure?
None of your fav Ed Sheeran songs;
I fit into yet you make me the muse.
Want you and not.
Oh boy what have you got yourself into.
You said it was 9 years of longing,
I am scared, I don't deserve this love.

He loved the flaws she tried to show
The scattered pieces, her tender side.
The little cracks, the gentle strain,
All the parts that brought her pain.

She once sat in a father’s dream,
A chair bound tight in another’s scheme.
His ambitions pressed, her own were lost,
She paid the price, she knew the cost.

But in his eyes, she found her peace,
His perfect vision brought release.
He saw the beauty in her mess,
In every stumble, no less, no less.

She loved his gaze, so pure and true,
For it was what she longed to view.
Not another path laid out for her,
But the love he gave, so sure, so pure.

For in his sight, her heart could be,
The woman she had longed to see.
No more the weight of others’ dreams,
Just his love, like flowing streams.

And as she sat, no burdened chair,
But in his world, so light, so fair,
She found the man who loved her flaws,
And in his perfect view, she saw.
Pure heart 
I seek, oh Lord 
Pure as gold that glitters 
Let it be firm, true, and steady. 
Always
Psalms 51:10

Sweet soul
Yesterday's gone.
There's fields ahead
Baby, stretch your legs.
This bright face
This tender heart.
Keep close the sun
Keep their words apart.
Wishing for a pure love
The kind that
Wants to make me shine
When I hear your voice
Wants nothing for itself
In return
The kind that walks on white
Warm sands
The kind that comes
In a drop
Of rain
Falling on the leafs dry vein
The kind that looks like
A child giggling while
Twirling in the sun with her tresses
Entwined in flowers
Respect enough not to force affections
Or expect it as something in return
The kind that teaches
The kind that learns
Pure and innocently
That wishes everything good
For others
While it waits for
Its turn
We all want the best versions of ourselves for others. What about for ourselves? Then you can see if its real.

Never a purer love
Stretches herself around my neck
A bliss-filled trill before
Curling against my side

The love we all dream of
Wakes me up each morning
To the tenderness of the present

This is a higher being.
And she is spending this life with me.
