YOUR GREATEST SIN

 

                                                                                                                                Cunning is the world

--striking tirelessly,

to make you,

your neighbors twin.

 

Together, they are one.

 

The enduring child and the old man

--refusing to give in.

 

Never on the run,

never live in fear

--they battle endlessly,

listening to the mirror.

 

Although the task is not popular

--for you it simply must be done.

 

For to be someone else and let the world win?

This would be your failure...and… 

 

Your greatest sin.

"ONLY FOR YOU"

 

This life of mine--It's not a dress rehearsal.

No practice runs...No Rockwellian puns.

God believes in me--The proof is in the pain...

If he didn't--I would have none.

 

A library of lessons past due.

In this moment--My clock starts...

This life I have, has you…And you, this life.

With the power of the Son--He's melded two hearts.

 

The sum of my parts--Is all it takes--Is all I got.

He's upped the stakes...From one to two.

A soulmates deeds for a soulmates needs...

Two loves forever bought.

 

The crown may be heavy--But I will not break.

I don't walk on water--But I can swim--It's a good thing too...

For the tears are flowing...But that I can take.

I regret nothing--I'd do it all again--Just for you...

 

Only for you.
