Fallen

Oh molten heart thine pain within must shed
of having Loved among the living dead
God forgive unto me my flowing tears
to you I kneel and give you all my fears

And crests the agony that washes earthy shore
of having Loved and been Loved no more
within it's endless seas have I drown
to take mine joy and cast it to the ground

Oh God forgive me a woman's heart
when love of one has stolen every part
and bowed beneath the burden of the weight 
too careless with my feelings and lightly take

Mine self been captured by netted snare
in the depth of well and love thats dwelling there
to exposed myself to one too blind to see
and giving him the gifts that comes from thee

To have cast the line of ecstasy and joy
and fished the depths of girl to loving boy
to have hoped within the seed to germ
or to count the cost if heart did spurn

And have thought this the one so carefully sought
wherein my safety and protection eternal caught
the rock foundation where Love can build it's home
in the unity of two hearts and minds as one

I had thought mine heart with gentle man to share
passion for Life and within indwelling of my care
thought naked soul like to my God I bare
and the depth of the well abiding there

To wish I had the gift of crippled ones to heal
the power of his Love no adversary can ever steal
to lift the broken souls up from their ashes
and to find heavenly treasures within their caches

Oh beloved man to you my heart have given
that within the bonds of True Love continue living
thou coulds't have my half and whole
that unto our God be as a single soul

Oh worthless slave am I to my masters call
to keep my duties and give to him my all
to teach me love upon his beck with comprehension small
that to his favor and freedom may never fall

To be despised is more agony than I can bare
from the one heart has chosen for it's care
for Truth and Love have only sought to share
and the many treasures residing there

For the anointed is Ruler and King of me
for he does govern and measure all I see
and has foretold upon the wings of prophecy
what shall come to pass and what will be

When simple truth do so many think profound
where babes and children play upon it's ground
it's existence is innocence and Love so sound
and to give it it's returns a fourfold mound

Cast your bread upon the waters if you dare
because Love cannot be confined but meant to share
but beware that what you Love isn't Satan's snare
and we be found not wheat but thorny tare

For somehow my love found my evil so indwelling
and to delete me and despise he found compelling
I cannot lift mine eyes to look upon his face
for that something shameful by him I found disgrace
