there is nowhere
I can escape grace,
nowhere I can hide,
neither my shame nor my chaos
put you off my scent
still you pursue me,
holy hound of love,
when I flee
you take wings,
when I cover myself in darkness
you light breaks through,
love insists on sitting with me,
even in a pit of my own making….
then heaven whispers to my soul,
“you were made in love,
for love,
and I know your ways,
when you reach the end of your rope
love remains,
love always remains “
Love remains,
love always remains….
there words echo
as I reach for that rope and find it gone
yet I am held,
forever in love
