Analysis of Sharing...



Love seems to be one breath away,
just out of reach,
yet its air is felt each day.

I stand one heart beat away,
feeling its serene life,
as I walk on a path,
through a forest of strife.

It amazes me who we are,
some near, some distantly far.
I can only speak for myself,
sharing the rolodex from my minds shelf.

The past I know longer need,
more important is the new planted seed.
Always watching as people grow,
learning there's so much more I need to know.

I know one day love will fill this heart,
untill then Jesus mends to whats been torn apart.
Forgiveness has set my being free,
unselfishness has allowed me to see.

Jesus gave me reasons to stay,
I pray you feel His love each breathing day.
Peace...
