You always asked me "What would I be without you?" To be brutally honest, that question scares me to death because I already know the answer and I don't want that responsibility of being your one true love there is a fine line between love and obsession and I'm afraid to say that you've crossed over to the other side where love isn't enough constant attention isn't enough daily praise isn't enough I refuse to be a prisoner to your love you can't capture me and put me in a high tower out of fear that others may find me desirable I have spent many a night scratching and scraping at the walls of this prison and today I broke through and saw the other side of love the love that is free and trusting and encouraging and amazing I couldn't look away I had to have it for myself so I pulled at the wall until my fingers were bleeding and the sharp jagged pieces ripped through my skin as I crawled through the tiny hole I was able to make I think I even let pieces of hair behind but no matter because I am now free away from your angry clutches and my new love is helping me to seal up that wall for good and I shall tell all about that very day that I escaped from hell on earth I wish you could see my smile it would irk you and that thought would make me smile throughout eternity

Love vs. Obsession
*"...Enraptured and terrified Denied and deified Salacious and sanctified What have you done?"* ...loved and lived sacrificed and given my soul to heaven my life to hell my mind in a purgatorial cell pondering decisions I made so ******* well I chose to try not lie, but die prayed for a future that couldn't survive All of my dreams suffocating within sacerdotal sheets of silk singing with sin my only desire to be within this licentious fire of our friendship ablaze A satirical embrace within two hearts compressing space separate, yet one what have we become but cardinal sins within our confessional? 022604~9.12p

re: "Pour the Wine"
One year ago, we said “I do,” Two hearts as one, a love so true. Hand in hand, through joy and strife, God bound us strong, husband and wife. We faced the storm, we felt the rain, In hospital halls, we carried pain. But even there, through nights so long, Our faith in God remained our song. He turned our tears into a stream That watered hope and birthed a dream. A business born, a sacred start, A breakthrough crafted by God’s heart. Through every trial, through every test, You’ve been my peace, my soul’s sweet rest. We prayed, we cried, we stood, we grew And still I choose, each day, just you. Our calling now is clear and bright, To walk by faith, to shine His light. Together now, we rise, we go Wherever God leads, we’ll follow. So here’s to one year, love so divine, With many more where our hearts align. My love, my light, my answered prayer, With you, this life I’m proud to share. Happy Anniversary, my forever love, You’re my greatest gift from God above. 💕
