Dilemma's Desire I’m caught between love and desire Not knowing if I should yield to fire Should I deny the pull of your soul? Not acknowledging I know your role Safe and secure wrapped in pure love Granted sanctity from my Lord above Or should I cede to the hope of this The want of such held in your kiss? I’m caught between night and day Knowing so well what I should say I’d be better turning my back to you Knowing this is fantasy quite untrue With my love I’m blessed in his eyes My soul is content but no more flies Why can’t I delight in love divine? Knowing I am his and he is mine I’m caught between don’t and do Wishing I understood a part of you There’s no confessing of my intent I’m left alone with what I meant When I’m with him I know for sure I love him now and will evermore You’re a dream that’s all now leave me I’ll return to loving him completely Marsha To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace Luke 2:79 |

  (sigh) I think we can all get blockaded in these desires every now and then, sweet friend, but I know as long as you follow your heart and make decisions based on them, everything will always go alright in the end! (kiss on cheek) This is beautiful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Marsha, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

Marsha, darling girl. Again, your pen bleeds wonderful truths. Man and woman are constantly debating about love or desire as if they are separate. I don't think they need be. Personally I believe Love and desire go together in a non-exlusive way like Christ taught us. I believe that man's prisms filter and bend the light of Love to partition God's love and make new meanings defining guilt, blame and shame, in order that women will become weak, go into bondage and subject themselves to control of men. A wonderful poem, Mushy. Thank you for sharing. Your beautiful words are always honey to my soul.
