Ode to Submission

Appealed by sight with purpose for heart

Ignorance of youth suppressed His wisdom and art. 

The metamorphose of your character

Subdues my pride and incites humble tear. 

Each day enchanted by laughter and possibilities

The future awaits our sky-reaching dreams. 

Your care like spring sunshine, 

Brings warmth, ease, comfort sublime. 

I see your intention with each language of love

Looming issues and problems we are surely above. 

Discourse, opinion, misconception, frustration:

Temporary tension beat by unmatched elation.

Yet even sporadic separation constricts and smoothers

The well-meaning, wellspring for you over others.

Worries and wonders about worsts and what-ifs

Transform trust into turmoil, my stomach it twists. 

But how dare i deny and doom His delight

In preparing and placing us when timing is right. 

My dependence on you, dear, may have been misplaced

I tarry on the concept that you alone aren’t enough.

As lead scratches paper my heart is prompted

Although unexpected, welcomed is my course redirected. 

My soul focus on you creates too much a burden

For you and for us, undoubtedly hearts would be hardened.

So grateful am I for realized conviction

Releasing the bondage of a marriage eviction. 

I love at a fault invoking such pressures

That bind you to fears – anxieties unmeasured. 

For that i am sorry and wish to no longer

Rely on you as my Heavenly Father.
