THE WOUND OF LOVE
She leans forwardInto me
To pounce uponMy faith in God
And expose itAs a fantasy
In which I hideFor comfort
A way of avoidanceThe need of reassuranceBut I assure her
He has long sinceCeased to comfortOr crutch me
More a dagger nowEmbedded in my breast
A wound in me that bleedsA blessing
The wound of love
