Pulchritudo in caritate

Let me explore my love's bountiful beauty. 

 

She has awakened depths of feelings, 

fathomless desires, 

and an animal drive so primordial, 

yet I don't want to reduce this to a need of the flesh, 

that would be too base for the richness of what I feel. 

 

Never has my soul come alive so intensely, 

she has quickened me, 

she has shown my inner man vitalities’ fountain, 

I drink of its waters. 

 

I have searched for this revelation through depressions valley, 

I have stumbled through midnight darkness to find her radiance. 

 

In a world of blind eye's, 

amor's truth has dawned on me and granted clear vision. 

 

I truly see what love is and can be. 

 

In her there is a promise of a future, 

to wonderful for my mind to imagine. 

 

In her there is a hope, 

that silences the demons of doubt. 

 

Her words bring to naught, 

all the chittering voices, 

that disparage love's sunrise on a land of darkness. 

 

There is a fullness of passion that breaks forth, 

as an artesian well in a barren desert. 

 

Life is alive in this heart of mine,

each beat is a testimony of my love for her.

i hope this is a diary entry and you really 'have stumbled through midnight darkness to find ... radiance.' you've been through a lot and you could really use someone to stand by you through this repair. as do i, although i am all out of luck. but i did enjoy this piece that explodes with optimism.
