First Love

Sometimes— when the world

is on fire, when we melt-

down into a desperate

stew of raw emotion

to the tipping point

of ruins and ashes—

despair closes over us,

but there is hope, full

and perfect, constant

and beautiful, the Light

of the world and Redeemer

of all surrendered, and He 

calls those who are listening, 

all who are willing to believe

in the love that began

everything.
