holiness;
in a girl like myself...
god--how did you see beyond my selfish cries?

these beating hearts
(i am learning to believe)
these beating hearts
(believing you are all that i need)
out of these beating hearts
my heart chooses to beat just
for You
          ...only You

my tears were scattered across
your feet,
i bowed down without knowing
what i needed...
god--how did you see beyond my translucent smile?

these beating hearts
(i am learning to trust)
these beating hearts
(trusting that you will fill me with your
neverending love)
out of these beating hearts
my heart chooses to beat just
for You
          ...only You

stumbling throughout this darkness,
needing a reason to be fulfilled...
god--how did you know how badly i desired
your love?

Jesus, You are all this beating heart needs
Jesus, Please, Please
...fill my pounding heart
...fill this bleeding wound
...surround me in your presence
...and please
                 ...come soon.

An absolutlely lovely poem with such warmth and sincereness in its prayer.  I pray God answers your prayer and that He fills the emptiness I see in your words.  A very good poem that I enjoyed very much.  I love poems that are from the sincerest of hearts.

Blessings,

Jesus lives in my heart!  He can in yours too!!!
