Imperfect Love - Sausalito 2006

How I love you. . . 
Imperfectly
How I want you . . .
Imperfectly
How I need you . . .
Desperately
I don't know how to love you
I can barely love myself
Yet my greatest desire
is to know you more
I'm on my knees
because I stumbled there
Trying to seek your face
but I can't raise my head
I'm trying to be obedient
but my deprivation compels me
can you ever love a sinner
who's called to be a saint?
The pain inside
drives me 
to the wickedness
of my mind
Can you navigate
this maze
I've created
to shut you out?
My heart cries out
for a perfect love
to be seared with truth
to the depths of my soul
Come find this wandering child
who morns for her lost love
She's waiting for you
to carry her home!
